This disclosure concerns an improved tip for a soldering iron comprising a material which is both a good heat conductor, as well as a good electric insulator, such as for example an AlN ceramic. This ceramic may contain one or more metal coatings wettable by the solder used. The ceramic tip may be heated by an electric resistance coil around an extension from the tip and covered with a shield, or the tip may be hollow and have the heating element inside it, preferably adjacent the tip end.
