Terry;
I did something similar to replace tips on a soldering gun, the tips that Weller used seem to break off near the end thanks to that square material they made them out of. I think 10 guage is the stuff that fits. Then I have a Taiwan cheapie gun that I bought over 20 years ago, and whilst it is lower wattage then the Wellers I have it still has it's original tip so whoever designed that tip did a better job then Weller did. I think I have one of their pencil irons someplace, if got tossed aside after the tip broke off, right across the threads, after Cooper took over the quality really went to pot, it has improved since.
Regards
Arran
