Default what metal are soldering iron tips made out of usually?

In article rs.com, DoN.
Nichols says...

Now, I use either of two PACE units -- one is a portable one
which will run from 12 VDC or the AC line, and which contains a tiny DC
vacuum pump for the solder-sucking functions. The other is a dual
station -- one solder sucking, and one for just direct soldering. That
one is rather less portable.


I guess I'm spoiled, we have house vacuum at work - so no venturi
pumps or otherwise are required. g
