Sal Ammoniac Bar | Soldering Tip Tinning & Cleaning Block
$5.00
Better Tinning. Better Soldering.
Keep your soldering copper properly tinned and ready for work with a Sal-Ammoniac Bar. When used with solder, the block helps clean and tin the heated copper tip, allowing solder to adhere evenly to the working surface.
- Proper tinning promotes better heat transfer and easier soldering
- Ideal for roofing and architectural sheet metal work
- Used to clean and pre-tin soldering copper tips
- Helps solder adhere evenly to the copper tip
- This product is just the ammonia stone (video shows entire Flux Caddy)
- Compact 3″ x 2″ block
How to pre-tin a soldering tip:
Once the soldering iron gets hot enough to melt solder, melt solder against this sal-ammoniac block. Due to the sal-ammoniac bar’s chemical composition, the solder will remain on the bar. Rub the copper tip against the solder on top of the bar and a layer of solder will adhere to the copper tip. This is a useful exercise because a pre-tinned tip makes soldering easier.

Been doing this work for over 40 years. Got into it young and loved it! Miss the old 40# tin though! But Stortz was in it long before me and have always had the best products to work with! Love them! I have slate hammers 100 years old that are Stortz and I have new Stortz slate hammers. I’ll never use anything but Stortz! Keep the 50/50 solder or I’ll go nuts!
