ATTEN ST-8802 2-in-1 Rework Station 800W Hot Air
ATTEN ST-8802 2-in-1 rework station: 800 W hot air, 100-500 °C, 120 l/min vortex fan, plus a 65 W soldering iron, 80-480 °C, on standard T900 tips.
Hot air and an iron,
on one screen.
The ATTEN ST-8802 puts an 800 W hot air station and a 65 W soldering iron in one chassis, and shows both temperatures side by side on a single LCD with the air setting underneath. In practice that is the whole argument for a 2-in-1: you take a part off and put the replacement on without moving to another instrument or losing sight of what the other tool is set to.
The hot air side is the same section as the ST-8800D — 100 – 500 °C, up to 120 l/min, and a brushless vortex fan that sets the air rotating so it spreads across a package rather than concentrating on its centre. A touch sensor in the gun holder sleeps the station the moment the gun is racked, and the fan keeps running after switch-off until the element is cool.
The iron runs from 80 °C to 480 °C and holds ±2 °C, and it takes ordinary T900 tips — the same standard as most of the AT and ST soldering stations, so tips are shared across the bench and cost a few euro.
What it does
Both tools on one screen
Hot air and iron temperatures are shown side by side, live, with the air percentage under them. You never have to switch a display to see what the other tool is doing.
Brushless vortex fan
The air leaves the nozzle rotating rather than as a straight column, so heat spreads across a package instead of drilling into the middle of it.
Auto-sleep on the stand
A touch sensor in the gun holder sleeps the station the moment you rack the gun — nothing left blowing at 400 °C.
Independent cold-air mode
Full air flow with the heater off, for cooling a joint quickly or for work that wants the flow without the heat.
Automatic cool-down
After switch-off the fan runs at high volume until the element is cool. That single behaviour is most of what decides heating-core life.
Iron down to 80 °C
An unusually low floor for a soldering iron, and ±2 °C stability at the working end of the range.
Three shortcut keys
Three temperatures, each set and stored independently, so a change of alloy or board is one press.
Password and key lock
Settings can be locked behind a password — worth having on a shared bench or in a training room.
The 2-in-1 worth having
There are two 2-in-1 stations in the range. The AT8586 is the cheaper one, and the differences are concrete: a fan-type pump instead of a vortex fan, 700 W of hot air instead of 800 W, and a 50 W iron that stops at 150 °C where this one goes down to 80 °C. For a bench in daily use the ST-8802 is the one to have; for occasional work the AT8586 is honest value.
If you already own a soldering station, the ST-8800D is this machine's hot air half on its own and costs considerably less. If you need more hot air rather than more tools, the ST-862D brings 1000 W and a pluggable heater.

What you receive
- ST-8802 main unit
- Hot air gun
- Gun holder with touch sensor
- 4 nozzles
- Soldering iron handle set (SP-65) with a T900-B tip
- Iron stand
- AC cord
- User manual
Both tools, both stands and four nozzles are included, so the station is ready to work out of the box. Worth adding: a couple more T900 tip shapes — a chisel and a knife cover most of what the supplied conical tip does not.
Other hot air and rework options
All twelve are compared side by side on the rework & desoldering page.
Questions before you order?
Tell us what you rework and whether you already have a soldering station — that one answer usually decides between this and the ST-8800D. Two-year warranty on the station, one year on the handle.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the ST-8802 and the ST-8800D?
The soldering iron, and nothing else. Both use the same 800 W hot air section — 100 – 500 °C, ±35 °C, 120 l/min, the same brushless vortex fan, four nozzles, cold-air mode, three shortcut keys and the password lock. The ST-8802 adds a 65 W SP-65 iron on the same chassis. If your bench already has a soldering station, buy the ST-8800D and save the difference.
Which tips does the iron take?
T900 — the 900M standard, and the most common tip series ATTEN makes. A T900-B conical tip is fitted in the box. Because it is the same standard as most of the AT and ST soldering stations, tips are shared across the bench and cost around €4 each.
Can both tools run at the same time?
Yes, and the display shows both temperatures together with the air setting beneath them. The iron also has its own on/off key, so you can leave the hot air side configured while the iron is switched off.
Why does the iron go down to 80 °C?
It is a genuinely low floor for a soldering iron — most start at 150 °C or higher. It is useful for keeping a tip warm without oxidising it between joints, and for work on heat-sensitive assemblies. At the working end of the range the iron holds ±2 °C, which is the figure that actually matters.
Is this better than two separate units?
For bench space, yes, and you only lose one mains socket. What you give up is independence: one controller runs both tools, so it is one person's bench. If two people share it, or you want to keep an iron permanently set while someone else uses hot air, separate units are less frustrating.
Which nozzles does the hot air gun take?
Four are supplied. ATTEN does not publish a nozzle-series list for this gun and we would rather not guess — send us a photo of the end of the barrel and we will match it before you order. The full nozzle range lists every bore and shape we stock.
What warranty applies?
Two years on the station and one year on the soldering handle. Tips, nozzles and heating cores are wear parts and sit outside it — we keep them as spare parts.
