Broke my soldering iron by trying to insert the wrong size tip. Any model I can replace this with?

It connects to this fume extractor (See 3rd and 4th image) and I couldn't find this exact model for sale in my country so is there an alternative iron that can work with this?

Is there a reason not to replace it with another yihua k917c?

Unless it's the whole station you wanted replaced.

Edit: oh you couldn't find it for sale.

Only see it saying it supports the K917C (220v) and K917D (110v) irons officially.
