Well, I bought a Metcal iron on ebay, model # SP-PW1-10. It came with a
rather blunt tip, good for heavy gauge stuff but unusable for circuit
boards, etc. Unfortunately, searching the Metcal site for this model
iron doesn't yield any info. Anyone know what series tips fit it? The
tip (and the connector on the wand cable) I have is (are) 2-pin style
(some internet lore suggests that there are basically 2 style connectors
& tips for this brand, but I can't find any info on the Metcal site to
tell which series numbers are the 2-pin style.)

Thanks,

Charlie

That's the SP200. See: www.okinternational.com/product_soldering/sp200

The Metcal (OKI) has numbers for the set, the supply, each accessory, etc. but you only have to figure it out once, then you can buy tips on ebay.

The SP200 uses SSC tips. Use the Metcal info above to select what you want then grab them off ebay (there are 25 now listed). Set you Ebay personal shopper to notify you when they come up.
