YIHUA 8858 — compact hot air soldering station with a power of 650 W, designed for non-contact heating, assembly and disassembly of electronic components, heat treatment and other work where a directed flow of hot air is required.
Due to the wide temperature range from +100 to +480°C, the station is suitable for both delicate heating of small parts and for dismantling components from printed circuit boards, working with heat shrink and softening some types of plastics.
The compact control unit combines the power supply and temperature control system, and the digital display allows you to monitor the set temperature during operation. A replaceable hair dryer and a set of round nozzles of different diameters make it possible to adapt the station to a specific task.
Advantages of YIHUA 8858
- Power 650 W — provides rapid heating and stable supply of hot air.

- Temperature stabilization — helps maintain the set temperature during operation.
- Digital display — allows you to control the temperature directly on the control unit.
- Replaceable hair dryer — if necessary, the hair dryer can be replaced, which is convenient during long-term use.
- Replaceable nozzles — the kit includes three nozzles with a diameter of 5, 8 and 10 mm.
- Compact body — the station does not take up much space on the desktop.
- Light weight — about 0.82 kg, so the equipment is convenient to move between workplaces.
What is the YIHUA 8858 hot air station used for?
The hot air soldering station is used to heat parts and components without direct contact with the heating element. Hot air is directed to the desired area through the hair dryer nozzle, providing local heating.
YIHUA 8858 is suitable for the following tasks:
- dismantling SMD components from printed circuit boards;
- installing electronic components that are soldered with hot air;
- soldering microcircuits, resistors, capacitors and other SMD components;
- dismantling connectors and other elements from boards;
- heating solder during electronics repair;
- working with heat-shrinkable materials;
- softening and molding some plastics;
- local heating of parts during repair work;
- maintenance of electronic equipment;
- repair consumer and computer electronics;
- radio amateur and DIY projects.
Dismantling SMD components
One of the main purposes of YIHUA 8858 is dismantling electronic components from printed circuit boards. Unlike a contact soldering iron, a heat gun heats the solder with a stream of hot air, which allows you to simultaneously heat several contacts of the component.
This is especially convenient when working with SMD components, connectors and other parts, for the dismantling of which it is necessary to evenly heat several soldering points.
Assembling SMD components
The station can also be used for mounting SMD components. Using the appropriate nozzle, you can direct the flow of hot air to the desired area of the board and melt the solder paste or solder.
The temperature must be selected according to the type of solder, component and its manufacturer's recommendations. Excessive heating can damage electronic components or the printed circuit board.
Working with heat shrink and plastics
YIHUA 8858 can be used not only for soldering. The directed flow of hot air is suitable for shrinking heat shrink tubing, local heating of plastic parts and other work where non-contact heating is required.
When working with plastics, it is necessary to control the temperature and heating time, since different materials have different softening and melting temperatures.
Temperature control
The temperature of the heat gun is regulated using the controls on the station unit. The available range is +100...+480°C.
The presence of a temperature stabilization system helps to maintain the set mode during operation. Current operating information is displayed on the digital display.
Use the minimum temperature that is sufficient for a specific task. This helps reduce the risk of overheating components, the board, or the material being processed.
Included attachments
The delivery includes three interchangeable attachments:
| Nozzle diameter | Features of use |
|---|---|
| 5 mm | For local heating of small components and areas of the board |
| 8 mm | A universal option for a wide range of works |
| 10 mm | For heating a larger area and larger components |
The choice of nozzle allows you to change the area and concentration of the hot air flow according to the size of the part and the nature work.
How to use YIHUA 8858?
- Install the station on a flat, stable and heat-resistant surface.
- Install the necessary nozzle on the hair dryer according to the size of the component or area to be heated.
- Connect the power cable to the 220 V power supply.
- Turn on the station and set the required temperature.
- Wait for the hair dryer to heat up to the operating temperature.
- Aim the nozzle at the work area. Do not bring the hair dryer too close to the board or component.
- Smoothly move the hot air flow over the required area, avoiding prolonged heating of one point.
- When you are finished using the device, turn off the device and let it cool down before cleaning it.
Safety tips
- Do not touch the metal part of the nozzle while it is in use — it heats up to a high temperature.
- Do not direct the hot air stream at your hands, skin, flammable materials or objects that may be damaged by heat.
- Ensure sufficient ventilation of the work area during soldering.
- Do not leave the station turned on unattended.
- After finishing work, wait for the hair dryer to cool down before storing it.
- For each type of component, select the temperature according to its technical specifications.
- Do not use excessively high temperatures unnecessarily, so as not to damage the board, components or plastic parts.
