Heat Shrink
A heat gun is a handheld power tool that emits a stream of hot air, typically at temperatures ranging from 100°C to 550°C (212°F to 1,022°F), with some models reaching up to 760°C (1,400°F). It resembles a hair dryer but is designed for industrial and DIY tasks, featuring a concentrated nozzle and higher heat output, making it unsuitable for hair drying due to burn risks. The tool consists of a heating element (usually electric or gas-powered), a fan to direct hot air, a nozzle for precise application, a housing for safety, a trigger or switch for control, and often a stand for hands-free use. Many models offer variable temperature and airflow settings for versatility.
Heat guns are used for tasks like stripping paint, shrinking heat-shrink tubing, welding or bending plastics, softening adhesives, thawing frozen pipes, and drying materials. They’re common in construction, automotive repair, electronics, and crafting, with applications ranging from removing decals to shaping PVC pipes. Safety features like thermal cut-offs and ergonomic designs enhance usability, while attachments like tacking or speed welding nozzles provide precision for specific tasks. Unlike blow torches, heat guns are flameless, reducing fire risks, but they require caution around flammable materials and proper ventilation to avoid burns or fume inhalatio
