Precision Conservation Irons & Hot Tacking Tools

Heat is an invaluable tool for safely mobilizing specialized adhesives, relaxing distorted materials, or setting structural fills. These tools offer highly precise temperature control to protect sensitive surfaces.

• Digital Tacking Irons: Handheld irons featuring miniature, interchangeable tips. They are used to activate heat-set tissues, apply edge-reinforcements, and seal archival polyester pockets. 
• Thermostatic Painting Irons: Flat, polished soleplate irons designed to consolidate flaking or lifting paint layers on canvas or panel paintings. The digital control unit ensures the tool never exceeds safe thermal thresholds.
• Specialized Heated Spatulas: Multi-functional heated blades used for precisely melting conservation waxes, splitting consolidated modern multi-layered papers, or smoothing out down-turned leather edges.
