Heat Guns

Alpha heat guns are the perfect
complement to our tubing, making
it easy to apply FIT heat-shrink
tubing quickly and efficiently.

The lightweight, durable guns are
designed to make application of
heat-shrink tubing fast and reliable.
They are well suited to both
industrial production and field use.
