Product Description
The Eddy Mark IV Replacement Handle Set is a genuine OEM accessory designed specifically for the Eddy Mark IV series of industrial heat guns, manufactured by Eddy Products in the USA. This set serves as a direct replacement for the original handles on models such as the EP-3ULM, EP-5ULM, EP-6ULM, EP-7ULM, and EP-1100 Plus, addressing wear, damage from drops, or general maintenance needs in high-use environments like automotive shops, manufacturing plants, and construction sites. Priced at $25.95, it offers an affordable way to restore the heat gun's ergonomic functionality without replacing the entire unit, extending the tool's lifespan which is already renowned for its durability and serviceability.
What's Included
- Right and Left Handles: The set comprises both the right-hand and left-hand halves of the pistol-grip handle assembly. These are molded to interlock seamlessly, forming the complete ergonomic grip that users love.
- Hardware Kit: All necessary fasteners, such as screws, nuts, and a retainer clips, are included for a straightforward installation. This ensures users can perform the replacement without sourcing additional parts, making it user-friendly for DIY repairs or professional servicing.
-
No tools are included, but basic screwdrivers (Phillips or Torx, depending on the model) are typically required for disassembly and reassembly. Installation involves removing the old handles by unscrewing the housing, removing the retainer clip, and transferring internal components like the cord wiring, and securing the new set— a process that can take 15-30 minutes for those familiar with the tool.
Materials and Construction
The handles are crafted from GE Lexan polycarbonate plastic, a high-impact, fiberglass-reinforced material (specifically Lexan 940A blend) known for its exceptional toughness and resistance to rough handling. Lexan provides:
- Impact Resistance: Virtually unbreakable, capable of withstanding drops and impacts that would shatter lesser plastics, making it ideal for industrial settings.
- Flame Retardancy: Self-extinguishing properties enhance safety around high-heat applications, complying with UL standards for electrical tools.
- Electrical Insulation: Superior dielectric strength prevents electrical hazards, crucial for a tool handling up to 1800W of power.
- Comfort and Ergonomics: The material allows for a textured, comfort-grip surface that reduces fatigue during prolonged use, with a non-slip finish even in sweaty or oily conditions. The complete assembly weighs minimally, contributing to the heat gun's overall lightweight design (under 3 pounds total).
