Is that a cold moisture applying on a very hot iron may cause it to bend its shape gradually
Right on, Mike. Perhaps you should have added at the end, just so no one misunderstands your meaning.Perhaps your right. The entire electronics manufacturing industry has been wrong for all these decades. Brass dinkydonks must be the way to go.

My Weller temperature-controlled soldering iron uses a very inexpensive method. It has a magnet in its heating element that loses its magnetism when it reaches the "Curie Point" temperature. The magnet pulls a switch to turn on the power to the tip and a spring turns it off when it reaches the Curie temperature. It turns on and off all the time.taking advantage of this thread : does anybody know an DIY economical closed loop temperature control for soldering irons?
Well, OKi/Metcal and Pace both offer brass curls as well as sponges, so there must be something to them.
