HTM Soldering Helping Hands with Heat-Resistant Silicone Mat & 5 Flexible Arms

Tired of juggling boards, wires, and components while trying to solder? The HTM Helping Hands gives you five adjustable arms to hold everything in place, mounted on a large 39cm × 28cm heat-resistant silicone mat. Work directly on the mat with your soldering iron or hot air gun—no more worrying about burning your workbench.

Whether you’re soldering fine wires to a drone flight controller, assembling custom keyboards, or repairing laptop motherboards, this complete workstation keeps components positioned exactly where you need them while protecting your work surface.

At a Glance

✓ Work directly on mat with soldering iron or heat gun ✓ Thickened design protects workbench ✓ No screws needed for arm installation ✓ Stable, tip-resistant base

Large Heat-Resistant Work Surface

The 39cm × 28cm silicone mat handles temperatures up to 500°C—hot enough for any soldering or hot air rework task. Work directly on the surface without damage.

What the mat protects against:

→ Soldering iron contact → Hot air gun heat → Solder splashes → Flux residue → Component drops

No more scorch marks on your desk. No more hunting for a heat-safe surface. The entire work area handles whatever temperature you’re running.

Five Flexible Helping Hands

Stop trying to hold boards steady with one hand while soldering with the other. Five adjustable arms position components exactly where you need them.

Flexible arm features:

→ Bendable metal arms hold position → 11 slots for complete positioning freedom → Tool-free installation—no screws needed → Adjust angles and heights instantly → Remove and reposition as needed

Set up your board at the perfect angle. Hold wires in place for soldering. Position multiple components for assembly. The arms stay where you put them.

Rubber-Covered Alligator Clips

The alligator clips include thickened rubber covers for safe component handling:

What rubber covers prevent:

→ Scratching jewellery and delicate items → Short circuits on live boards → Damage to PCB traces → Marking soft metals → Crushing delicate wires

Grip firmly without damage. Essential for working with finished products, jewellery, and sensitive electronics.

Multi-Function Mat Design

The silicone mat isn’t just a heat shield—it’s a complete workstation organiser:

Everything in its place. No more lost screws rolling off the desk. No more hunting for that tiny component you just set down.

Non-Slip Base

The base features a non-slip design that keeps the entire unit stable:

→ Prevents tipping during work → Stays in place when adjusting arms → Secure on various work surfaces → No sliding when applying pressure

Push, pull, and adjust without the whole unit moving. Essential when you’re focused on precision work.

What You Can Work On

Console Controller Repair Support PCBs during trigger repairs. Hold wires for joystick replacement. Position buttons during soldering.

11 Positioning Slots

The base includes 11 slots for arm placement:

→ Position arms anywhere around your work → Create custom configurations for each project → Add or remove arms as needed → Optimise angles for visibility and access

Different projects need different setups. The slot system adapts to your workflow.

Tool-Free Arm Installation

No screws, no tools, no fiddling:

1. Insert arm base into any slot
2. Adjust arm position and angle
3. Start working

Reconfigure in seconds when switching projects. Remove arms you don’t need. Add them back when you do.

Temperature Specifications

The mat handles temperatures well beyond typical soldering work. Even high-temperature lead-free rework stays within safe limits.
