[Heat Gun]
[Heat Gun with Case]
The Steinel 35025 HG 5000 E 230V electronically monitored heat gun with LED temperature display emits continuously variable airstreams at temperatures ranging from 80 to 1,100 degrees F up to 28 cubic feet per minute (CFM) at a pressure of 3,000 pascal. The straight form gun has a field-changeable DuraTherm ceramic encapsulated heating element with a coil life of up to 500 hours to evenly heat the airstream, a microprocessor that controls both the heating element and the fan motor to precisely regulate temperatures, and a numeric LED display that shows the preset temperature as well as the actual output temperature in 10 degree increments.
Heat guns are hand tools that emit a stream of heated air at variable temperatures up to 1,300 degrees F (700 C). Most guns have an electrical heating element to control output temperatures and adjustable fan motors to regulate and focus airflow. Heat guns with high airflow output (greater than approximately 20 cubic feet per minute) are sometimes called heat blowers. Heat guns can be used for a variety of applications ranging from copper and plastic welding to touching up shrink wrap. Accessory nozzles (sold separately) are used to shape the air stream over a wider area, or direct it around pipes and tubing for even heating which prevents adjoining surfaces (such as panes of glass) from overheating, and some heat gun models incorporate workbench stands to allow hands-free operation.
Steinel manufactures heat guns, glue guns, gas torches, and sensors. The company, founded in Germany in 1959, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001:2008 standards and is Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliant.
