The Metcal GT120-HP-T6 is a 120 watt soldering station with the HP–T6C handpiece. Unlike other Metcal stations, temperature on the GT120 is NOT fixed. It is easily adjusted through buttons on the station’s front panel, and has a temperature range of 392 to 842°F. And for maximum versatility, this station can also be paired with the optional HP–T4UF handpiece.
An adjustable temperature range offers a higher level of flexibility and an overall lower cost of ownership when compared with traditional fixed temperature systems. It is no longer necessary to purchase tips in different temperature ranges for a specific geometry. Now users can simply press a button and make an adjustment.

Metcal Technology. Metcal Performance.
The GT Series applies Metcal’s expertise in inductive heating to an adjustable temperature soldering system for the time. This drives high-performance through improved:
- Time to temperature
- Temperature stability
- Thermal recovery
Metcal offers two stations in this series - the GT90 and GT120. They both offer the same technology, but differ in overall power. The GT90 is 90 watts and ideal for applications with lower thermal demand such as consumer electronics, mobile devices and light/medium load industrial electronics. The GT120 offers 120 watts of power and can be used on heavier duty applications, such as solar panels, power and energy equipment, appliances and more.
