Frequently Asked Questions
Is B36 the same as B16.1?
Yes. B16.1 is the legacy designation and B36 is the current designation for the same physical solder pot base type. Nozzles listed as B16.1/B36 fit both designations.
Can B36 nozzles fit B22 solder pots?
No. B36 and B22 are different physical base sizes. B36 uses a larger solder pot interface. They are NOT interchangeable. Always confirm your base type before ordering.
Why do some B36 part numbers have letters in them?
Some B36 nozzle configurations use an alphanumeric part number format (e.g. 6isk47957020a) instead of purely numeric format. Both formats are valid reference numbers that uniquely identify specific nozzle configurations.
