The Dakine Adjustable Tuning Iron | Castlerock is a purpose-built waxing iron engineered for precise ski and snowboard maintenance. Its thick metal baseplate delivers stable, even heat distribution, ensuring hot wax melts smoothly and penetrates the base efficiently. A tuned, adjustable thermostat allows fine control of temperature depending on wax hardness and snow conditions. Constructed from a functional blend of aluminum, plastic, steel and copper, the iron balances durability, thermal response and handling. Its compact, well-weighted design makes long or short movements easy to control, producing a clean, professional finish across skis and boards of any length. For riders who want reliable performance and workshop-grade results, this iron is a trusted tool for consistent, high-quality hot-wax jobs.
The performance of the Dakine Adjustable Tuning Iron centers on its ability to maintain steady, predictable heat throughout the waxing process. The thick metal soleplate stores and releases heat gradually, preventing sudden spikes that could damage the base. Temperature can be set accurately to match soft, medium or hard waxes, optimizing melt rate and absorption. Beveled edges allow smooth directional movement, reducing drag and helping distribute wax evenly from tip to tail. The final result is a base that is uniformly saturated, faster on snow and more durable across variable conditions.
The iron is built from 55% aluminum, 40% plastic, 3% steel and 2% copper—a combination selected to maximize heat transfer, structural integrity and ergonomic control. Measuring 18 × 11 × 11 cm and weighing 0.53 kg, it offers the right balance between thermal mass and maneuverability. The ergonomic handle ensures stability and comfort during extended tuning sessions. Its compact footprint makes it easy to store in tuning kits, workshops or travel toolbags.
The calibrated thermostat prevents overheating, protecting the microstructure of sintered or extruded bases. The beveled edges of the soleplate promote a fluid wax flow, making it easier to manage speed and direction while ironing. Compatible with all Dakine hot waxes, the iron ensures ideal melting temperatures and optimal penetration for each wax formulation.
Designed for riders who want precise, controlled hot waxing—ideal for home workshops, seasonal tuning or performance-focused gear care.
