The Yellow Square tip cleaner is a sponge of copper-plated metal shavings for dry cleaning of a soldering iron tip. It mechanically wipes off burnt residue, oxide and leftover solder without water, so the hot tip avoids thermal shock. It is reusable and suits hobbyists, electronics engineers and repair shops; one sponge is included.
