## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this iron also weld pvc ?**
A: It will melt PVC, not sure about welding it. Please note, this is a***soldering*** iron, designed to melt ***solder***

**Q: What is the grey credit card sized metal plate with the two holes in it, alongside  the iron shown in the photo ?**
A: It's a stand for the soldering iron. The slot in the iron ( yellow section of the handle) at the soldering tip end fits into the groove of V shape of the plate. You bend the plate to suit the way the iron fits in the grooved. The holes are for screws with which you secure the plate to a bench or table top.

**Q: is this suitable for silver jump rings please?**
A: No, this will not generate the heat needed to solder silver jump rings.

**Q: Can you confirm this soldering iron comes with a stand  when purchased from this link please?**
A: They come with a small metal pop out stand, not as substantial as the Antex spring stand with sponge base though.
