Heat gun application

Heat guns are versatile tools that can be used in many areas. They are most often used for:

• Removing old paint, varnish or wallpaper.
• Bending and forming plastics.
• Thawing frozen pipes or other installation components.
• Soldering and welding of certain materials.
• Shrinking of foil and heat shrink tubing.

Heat guns are extremely useful in renovation work, as well as in many industrial processes. With adjustable temperature and different nozzles, these tools offer great flexibility in use.

Which heat gun is worth buying?

When choosing a heat gun, it is worth considering several key factors, such as the power of the device, the maximum operating temperature, additional functions and the comfort of use. If you need a tool for intensive work, such as removing paint from large surfaces, it is worth investing in a model with higher power. On the other hand, for lighter tasks, such as drying paint or bending plastics, heat guns with medium parameters are sufficient. Additional functions, such as temperature control, the ability to change nozzles or a cooling mode, can make work much easier.

Heat Guns – Power and Maximum Air Temperature

The power of the heat gun and the maximum air temperature are key parameters that affect its efficiency. Most of the heat guns available at Onninen have a power of 1500 W to 2300 W, which provides a wide range of possibilities, from simple finishing work to more demanding tasks. The maximum temperature usually ranges from 500°C to 650°C, which allows you to adapt the tool to specific needs. When choosing a heat gun, it is worth paying attention to models with smooth temperature regulation, which gives you more control over the work and helps avoid damaging materials.

Inadvisable and dangerous places to use a heat gun

Heat guns are versatile tools, but there are situations where their use can be inappropriate or even dangerous. Here are some examples of when you shouldn't use a heat gun:

1. Near flammable materials – Heat guns generate very high temperatures, so using them near flammable substances such as gasoline, solvents or dry wood could cause a fire.
2. On heat-sensitive surfaces – Some materials, such as plastic or delicate finishes, can warp, melt, or even catch fire when heated too high. In such cases, it is better to use other methods.
3. In closed, non-ventilated spaces – Using a heat gun in small, poorly ventilated spaces can lead to the accumulation of toxic fumes, especially when removing paints containing chemicals.
4. For dissolving or removing lead-based paints – Old paints may contain lead, and heating them with a heat gun releases toxic fumes that are harmful to health. In this case, it is recommended to use alternative methods such as hand scraping or chemical paint strippers.
5. On surfaces that may explode when exposed to heat – Some containers or materials heated with a heat gun may explode, such as closed pressurized cans or spray cans.
6. On electrical installations – Avoid using a heat gun near live electrical wires or equipment as the high temperature can damage the insulation and cause a short circuit.

It is always a good idea to remember to take appropriate safety precautions and read the instruction manual carefully before using a heat gun.
