Product Description
The Eddy VT-1100 Heat Deflector Attachment (P/N 014449), also referred to as the Heat Shrink Deflector or Air Deflector, is a specialized accessory designed for the Eddy VT-1100 Variable Temperature Heat Gun. This durable, heat-resistant deflector redirects and shields hot air flow, directing it precisely where needed while protecting adjacent surfaces from overheating or unintended damage.
Key Features:
- Protective redirection — Curves and deflects the hot air stream to concentrate heat on targeted areas (like tubing or wiring) while shielding nearby materials, such as panels, insulation, or surrounding components.
- Direct compatibility — Securely attaches to the nozzle of the Eddy VT-1100 heat gun (and compatible models like the Master Appliance EC-200), with simple slide-on installation and easy removal—no tools required.
- Robust construction — Built from high-quality, temperature-resistant materials to handle repeated exposure to 250–1100°F heat without deforming or degrading.
- Optimized for precision tasks — Enhances control in applications requiring even, directed heat without broad dispersion or risk to adjacent areas.
Benefits and Ideal Uses: This deflector is essential for safe, professional results in heat-sensitive work, preventing scorching, melting, or damage to nearby surfaces. It excels at:
- Heat-shrinking tubing, sleeves, or wraps on wires, cables, or connectors—ensuring uniform shrinkage while protecting nearby insulation or components.
- Electrical and automotive repairs involving wire harnessing, solder sleeves, or terminal protection.
- Precision adhesive activation or softening in tight or confined spaces.
- Paint or decal removal where adjacent trim or glass needs safeguarding.
- General tasks like thawing small areas or drying without affecting surroundings.
Pair it with the Eddy VT-1100's variable temperature control (250–1100°F) and dual-speed airflow (low for gentle, precise heating or high for faster results, up to 7-9 CFM) to fine-tune performance. It's frequently bundled in Eddy accessory kits alongside concentrators (3/8" and 7/8"), air spreaders (2.5" and 3.0"), and carrying cases for a complete professional toolkit.
Affordably priced, this attachment significantly expands the VT-1100's versatility for electricians, automotive technicians, fabricators, and DIY enthusiasts handling delicate or protected-area jobs. Always maintain proper distance, use in ventilated spaces, wear appropriate PPE, and follow heat gun safety guidelines. For broader heat coverage, combine VT-1100 with air spreaders; for focused streams, use concentrators.
