A heat gun is a machine that blows heated air. It is used to mould things, soften materials and provide heat. It can be used to remove oil paint from the walls, melt down the water in frozen pipes during winters in extremely cold places, or repair furniture. In dual temperature heat guns, they’ve two modes. One is more powerful and blows more heat, and the other mode is a bit subtle in comparison.
How to use
To use a heat gun, put the plug into the socket and turn it on. Now, on the switch, you’ll see two modes, higher power and lower power, switch to any mode based on needs and then the heated air would start blowing. Point the air towards whatever material you need to use it, and rotate the material to provide equal heat on all sides if required.
Common applications
1. A much less powerful version of heat guns is what we call hair dryers, used to make hair dry after shower.
2. It can be used to mould PVC pipes.
3. Heat guns can also be used to mould glass materials.
Safety Measures to follow
1. Never put your hand or any part of your body in front of a heat gun while it’s on.
2. Never point it to objects that are not intended to be heated, as it can prove hazardous.
