A hot air gun is an electric handheld tool that produces a stream of hot air for heating, drying, loosening, or shaping materials. It is commonly used in electrical work, paint removal, plastic bending, packaging, and repair applications. The tool consists of a heating element, fan, nozzle, handle, and temperature control system.
Operation:
The hot air gun operates by using electricity to heat an internal heating element while a built-in fan blows air across it and out through the nozzle as hot air. The user directs the heated airflow onto the target material to soften paint, shrink tubing, dry surfaces, or shape plastics. Temperature and airflow settings can be adjusted depending on the application and material being worked on.
