Product Information

Small, handheld models that are a simple tube shape, often called embossing heat guns, have low output but are invaluable for a number of craft projects. They can also be used for various paint and mixed-media effects. This mini heat gun is ideal for heating rubber stamps, epoxy resin, shrinkable film, and embossed powder. It has a 6.5-foot power cord and dual heat and speed options for DIY craft projects and detailed work. Heat guns are versatile bits of kit found in all the best toolkits. They are great for stripping paint or varnish, applying heat shrink tubing to cables, crafting or for pipe bending. Heat Source Weighing 11.2 ounces, this machine shouldn’t cause any undue discomfort, even during extended use. Additionally, it carries enough heft for those who like the feel of a substantial tool in their hands.

What makes this one of the best heat guns I’ve had a chance to try out is the three-step switch. You can’t change the temperature with a dial, but Bosch have selected three levels of heat and airflow that just seem to work. This is of major importance. Small devices often only need to work within a narrow temperature band and may do no more than reach a fixed temperature of a few hundred degrees Fahrenheit. General-purpose heat guns offer a wide range — from as little as 150°F to over 1,000°F. Others can be more function-specific and, while powerful, deliver a smaller operating range. It’s not always about having the greatest flexibility. Sometimes it’s more significant to have the correct heat for the task you’re undertaking. Heat control Compared with most full-size heat guns, this hot air machine looks more like an oversize board marker. You hold it like a pen rather than a pistol, and it creates a much more localised heat patch than one of the big boys. The JUSONEY mini heat gun is a beautiful purple gun with incredible features. If you want to work on significant resin and other art/crafts projects in less time and effort, this one is best for you because it has high speed and heat settings for the speedy completion of large tasks.Many of these things are well within the scope of the average DIY enthusiast, while others require specialist knowledge. Each makes different demands on a heat gun, which explains why there’s so much choice. Heat gun features Everyone thinks heat guns are the best secret keepers. You can use them anywhere for any project. These work like the air dryer; they draw the air with a fan forcing it across a heating element, then pushes it through a nozzle to create superheated air. The stats aren’t bad for a battery-powered heat gun either. It puts out 470° C and takes just 60 seconds to get up to full temperature. When you bear in mind that this doesn’t use mains power, that’s an impressive feat. I like the build quality on this heat gun, it’s what you’d expect from Bosch. The rubberised over-moulded handle is supremely comfortable and the whole thing feels solid and not a plastic toy. Use a heat gun to reflow solder. This is for when you’re trying to take components apart, not for initial soldering. That should always be done with a soldering iron. A lot of solder is now lead-free, but not all. Lead is toxic, so unless you’re absolutely sure of the origin, always have good ventilation and wear a respirator.

You also get a decent set of accessories to go with the heat gun. There are four different nozzles to choose from too. You get a fish tail, a classic reduction tip, a glass protection nozzle, and a light carbon nozzle. This can be an equally important feature, particularly if you need a specific temperature. Some basic heat guns offer high and low options, and quite a few tools have a number of presets via an easy-to-use dial. High-end models provide push-button settings and digital readouts. Air speed The casing of this hot air gun tapers toward the middle section — an ergonomic feature that should allow the tool to fit both snugly and comfortably in your hand. And, when you’re ready to put the unit down — simply pull out the integrated stand, allowing you to sit the gun horizontally on your bench.

Perhaps the standout feature of this unit is the power cord. Being 6.25 feet in length — it’s more extensive than most of its competitors and should increase working freedom. This may appeal to those DIYers working in difficult-to-reach areas, such as under basins or in car engine bays. The Wagner Furno 300 is a great option if you need a solid heat gun on a budget. This workhorse offers two different temperature settings integrated with two specific blower settings. With a maximum temperature of 1000°F, it offers more than enough heat to melt adhesives and strip paint, but it can also handle lower-heat DIY crafts. The all-plastic handle has a molded texture for better grip than comparable budget models, and its 6'6" cord is longer than many other models we tested. The cord also has a handy, integrated hanging loop for storage. The heat gun’s temperature ranges from 120°F to 1200°F; it uses high-quality mica material that can swiftly cool down hot materials; it also has an overload protector to prevent damage to the circuit and heat gun. This is a futuristic-looking heat gun with a large, rubberised handle. It’s more comfortable to use than some of the more expensive heat guns that just have a plastic handle. This makes it ideal for long paint stripping sessions and overall ergonomics.

There are different types of heat guns, and each has a unique feature and particular systems to give benefits. The most beneficial advantage is that they don’t use a flame and are safe for many applications. Even if you’re an expert, keep in mind to put on protective gloves and eye protection. This can be an important factor, too. Too little won’t get heat to the appropriate areas, and too much might damage whatever you’re working on. Many heat guns provide two settings. Nozzles
