Hot air blowers like the Steinel 2300 W are amongst the best all-rounders in the tool box: from shrinking and bending to burning, staining, soldering and loosening to drying and firing – this jack of all trades can do all this and more. Read on for some great application tricks which DIY-enthusiasts can use in future to make their work faster and easier …
1. Hot air – use in manual trades
With a hot air blower like the Steinel 2300 W you can:
- warm up plastics, making them more flexible and more workable
- connect pipes and tubes by shrinking them
- use bitumen for roof repairs with much greater ease
- dissolve paints, activate glues and shorten drying processes
2. Hot air – use in renovation works
Use hot air effectively to:
- loosen varnishes, wallpapers and glue residues
- bend plastics and copper
- stain wood and warm up bitumen
- solder roof gutters
- dry and harden diverse materials
3. Hot air – use in electronics
Use our hot air guns like a professional to:
- solder and desolder
- strip and shrink cable
- in doing this, work carefully and always use the correct attachments
4. Hot air – use in recycling
With hot air you can desolder only the electronic components made from damaged circuit boards by:
- using a reduction nozzle, clamping the circuit board in a vice and heating the solder joints up to around 280 °C, then removing the part with pliers.
5. Hot air – use in a car
When using car window films and foil application on cars, hot air allows for more easy handling, because it:
- guarantees excellent adhesion to the base surface during application
- softens the adhesive layer during removal so that the film can be easily removed
6. Hot air – use in tiling
Remove individual tiles or valuable old décor without damage using the hot air fan together with the TilexPro-System from Trotec:
- adjust the system chamber of the TilexPro to the size of the tile to be removed, position and warm up with the hot air fan
- next, remove the tiles from the underfloor without damaging them and when the renovation works are complete, replace them
