Spurtar Soldering Mat, Soldering Station 45 x 30 cm 500℃ Heat-Resistant Silicone Work Mat, Anti Static Magnetic Electronics Repair Silicone Pad for Electronic, Soldering, Phone Laptop Watch Repair

A very good quality soldering mat very easy to use has magnetic compartments and zones for holding tools and components it is a good size and very well thought out layout used it for a good while for building one of my electronics projects and had no issues with it just what I was looking for

Works really well when working on repairs really organises all the tiny screws well and good investment, the magnets work well the size is also really good too, it came in a box folded so i might take a little bit of time to for to shape properly but apart for that really good mat.

Great quality nice and thick, and a great price.

It's one of those items that just makes life easier but we all neglect to invest in and just make do with putting screws in a cup or something. But if you're like me.. that doesn't really work out very well for long! Things get knocked over, moved and forgotten about etc.This mat helps you keep screws in order, which is very important because not all the screws you take out of a device are going to be the same size.For instance: If you mix them up when reassembling a mobile phone, you can end up driving the wrong size in and pushing through to the LCD screen behind the screw socket. There are millions of examples of that on YT/google if you don't believe me!So the little screw organiser is brilliant. Upto now I have only been using double-sided sticky tape to keep screws organised, but this mat just removes so much bother with its features!With closeable compartments to keep things in for next time, plenty of little compartments to leave your screwdrivers and such. It has changed my "tinker time" entirely!It IS heat-resistant, not "heatproof", so I don't recommend leaving your solder iron on there for more than a few seconds, and I would suggest using something like tin-foil to protect it if you plan on using a heat gun also.I would say the mat will resist anything up to about 450c. But after that, you will likely see the rubber begin to melt, (as I have when testing it with my heat gun). But it's certainly not going to combust if you leave your solder iron on there while you answer the phone. So It's still a very useful feature, as it will definitely protect your desk and home from accidents!The magnets are a little disappointing. While useful, they could be so much better. If they used Neodymium magnets, then I'd be happy. But the magnets are just general use ones you get on fridge ornaments. So screws stick to them (lightly), but if you shove the mat or the desk then they can still break free!Which lets the product down a bit and knocks a star off for me.I may install superior magnets into the mat myself in future.Overall though, I am very happy with it. It's a must-buy for your tinker desk!

Fantastic mat for electronic work, the multitude of compartments is very handy for screws, parts etc.Does not slip on the table and it cleans very nicely also. Must have for any repair hobbyist.

I bought this to give me a safe indoors place to solder without damaging the house/table.Its about A3 in size - or the size of 2 pieces of A4 paper - and comes in a box loosely folder in half. The “work area” is big enough for my need with a some handy trays around the edge.The silicon feels pretty thick so I think it will provide the surface underneath with good protection.Its nice and heat-proof, I've "wiped" the hot solder off the iron a few times on one of the shaped ridges and its was undamaged (not sure its good practice but it was helpful)Any solder that dropped onto it just rubs off when cool…The little tray shapes in the edges are useful for parts / tools. The magnets are real though I’ve not needed to stick screws or anything to them yet. Since modern diodes etc. are so small the trays and lip are very useful in stopping parts escaping onto the floor or otherwise getting lost.Very happy with this purchase.

Whilst i haven't tested its heat resistant properties thoroughly i have been very pleased with this product from the cheaper end of the range of listings for solder and heat resisting pads. I have also used it for repairing smart phones due to its organisers (handy for the little screws and plates) and its anti-static properties. The bright colour is also handy to find small parts that spring off or get dropped. Its nice and thick and durable and does all of the advertised duties. Great value, I'm very pleased with my purchase
