Daswulf Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'd say it's for soldering being that it's copper or brass.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Turley Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Copper and brass tools are used where you don't want sparks. There could be an explosion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
