In 1984 the distinctive orange ‘Technic' was the first pocket portable soldering iron introduced to market, and technicians the world over were suddenly given the freedom to be able to solder joints in the field, alleviated by the need to plug in to electrical outlets. Following the original innovation of the ‘Technic', Portasol rapidly built on this success and introduced the Professional iron, adding accessories such as hot blow and hot knife tips, and producing the first Heat Tool Kit. Portasol has established itself as the world leader in its field and manufactures a comprehensive range of gas-powered soldering irons and heat tool kits.
The Super-Pro is a firm favourite in the automotive aftermarket with features such as flameless hot blow for heat shrink tubing; built in blowtorch and hot knife.
Portability is the keystone of the philosophy here at Portasol. The goal is to provide to the customer the convenience of portable gas technology in the form of heat tools such as soldering irons, micro torches and dehorners. Portasol is constantly developing the technology and capabilities to provide the best solutions for portable gas powered hand tools.
