- The SS-02 Japanese Engineer Solder Sucker
Its time to up your solder suction game! Japan was undisputed leaders in electronics during the through hole component years, it only makes sense that their through hole tools are fantastic!
Many thanks to @FlamelilyIT (twitter) for sending this in, I will cherish it!

Thanks you lovely people, and keep on tinkering!
I believe the long tube is from which you are meant to cutting replacement short pieces.
yes
I have arthritis in my thumbs and the old style was painful to use more then one or two times. I got one of these new ones and I can just push it on my leg or bench so much easier now, I'm glad I finally ordered one after my old tip got too wide and split.

They do indeed look a little splotted
I bought one last week - excellent sucker!
You certainly get more suck for your buck!
Ooh. Another "Engineer" brand thingy I must own.
Oooo they make other things?!?!
@@backofficeshow oh yes... :) I've got the short stubby screwdriver ratchet thingy which is a godsend for getting into tight spaces and the screw extracting pliers with perpendicular ridges.
Very functional kit.

I need me some screw removal pliers
@@backofficeshow they are also the original makers of the "Vampliers" as far as i know
Vampliers - nice!
The longer silicone isn’t a long replacement 😊 it is about 8 replacement tips. You have to cut it. Unfortunately couldn’t find it in the UK store! But it is available on US! I think i will get it from there
Thanks for the video! I wanted to get the Vampire version but it was $7.00 more. I ordered mine just now! Great video by the way!
the longer tube is so you can cut replacement tips! its not ment as an extension, but hey if it work's it work's
I should get mine today but how many times have you gone to suck the solder with the cheap ones and the plunger hasn't' been depressed or set and ready to go? I swear every time that happens. I noticed that you can tell with this one right away if the plunger is ready, that right there ALONE makes it worth it.
Thanks for the video. I put this on my wish list of things to try out. Appreciated.
Hope it works out for you, I think its learning curve was pretty quick over the regular ones, getting used to the squishy end took 30 seconds to adjust :)
I have the Kotto and this one now. The Kotto has been great but the end came flying off one day. Somehow the threading got messed up so had to put a bit of JB weld on it to keep the thumb piece on.
The teardown and review was useful, and then you completely sealed the deal for me when you used it for the first time. Seeing how quickly you desoldered that transformer and how clean the holes came out, wow. Decision made. Mine arrives tomorrow, so excited to try it out over the cheapies. Thanks for the video, especially the closeup views.
By the way, can you please share a link to the blade tip you're using? I want to find something similar for my FX-888D. I love how thin it is; would make bridging in tight spots really easy. Closest I can find is the T18K knife tip, but it's still a 2mm wide wedge, not a thin blade like yours.
I'm not sure exactly of the top of my head, but I am sure I referred to it in this video and possibly a link in the description 👍

@@backofficeshow Part number was right in the video, thanks so much. Off to do some searching.
Lovely Japanese stuff. Excellent sucking power 😆 and I love mine. Glad you think it's a game changer. I concur👌
I reckon we need one that if you have your finger on the end and you depress the button it should not shift. Zero internal leaks. Like the MAXIMUM SUCK possible. :)
Note that all suckers get weaker over the years. You can easily strengthen each sucker by taking out the spring, and pulling it into length. Compare the length before and after. For example I stretched my spring to 150% and wow, much better sucking power now.
I shouldn't have cheaped out on the solder pump, I learnt the hard way :D
What did you end up with?
@@backofficeshow Some noname cheapo pump. It works good for like 2-3 times then I need to open it to clean it, then repeat. I've ordered the SS-02, hope for better results :)
@@Terra101 fingers crossed!
Got one myself after recommended from MyMateVince on his videos.
dO THEY MAKE AN AUTHENTIC HAKKO TIP LIKE THAT FOR THE HAKKO FX-888D STATION? What size is it?
Solder turns liquid at 190C-ish so you will be fine. Just when you touch the iron directly for longer than a second you would melt it.
Tests the soldering iron that has the solder sucker 👍

czcams.com/video/UACZMu7o06k/video.html Where is the sucker? I cannot find it.
oh you mean "test"? Sure I will look out for one. I always thought they looked good for the money.
Vellemen makes a heated solder sucker that's awesome and affordable.
It's like these only you plug it in the tip heats up.
I would share a link but IDK if youtube will flag my comment?
Here's the description:
Velleman VTDESOL3U Vacuum Desoldering Pump with Heater 30W
I know the kind well, they seem to be well available and significantly cheaper than the motor ones. I do like the explosive suction of a spring pump, can't be matched
I have this but it doensn't do the job well. imo the nozzle is too big..
Great camera. What are you using?
I use the Panasonic Lumix GH series cameras
Heavy four layer pcb use work better in?? Your use very simple pcb.
Wow! That sucker tool from Japan, It really SUCKS! Great video presentation!
disable your cam's auto focus
..I bought one.. my first.. wanted something good...
Merk?..pump
Docking? whats that mean?😅😅
Something about space craft I think 😂
@@backofficeshow indeed. +1
Try a zd 915 desoldering iron
I did, it broke, I absolutely hatred it 😂
@@backofficeshow yes i broke my tube glass as well
Everyone seems to like them but I do not 😂
I prefer this new sucker any day
@@backofficeshow same but i am repair a lot of bord and the desoldering iron is more quick and precise but is a horror to cleaned
There are other styles like the heated pump version. I will look for one of those.
Docking 🤣🤣👉👈
They love docking on the international space station, always at it
@@backofficeshow cracked me up when you said that 🤣
I just bought one - and it sucks! But not in the good way.. it has so ridiculously low suction power, it simply doesn't work :( I don't know why.. opened it and everything is looking normal.. at least compared to this video. I could not see what the other inside half is supposed to look like as it wasn't opened from the back in this video..
Also the sound when releasing the pump is strange.. it sounds a bit like my old standard-plastic pump, when it's clogged. But there's nothing inside, it's completely new and clean.
That does not sound right 🤔
@@backofficeshow I just filed for return at Amazon. Don't want to sit on this kind of expensive thing if there's no easy fix available :(
I think you did the right thing
@@backofficeshow Thanks. It's just so annoying.
The old style ones have been around for a long time. I am sure there are a few high quality versions of those available as well. I have some for a few decades and even they were second hand 😂
This thing sucks!!!
checking it out with your TEETH????
It's delicious!
