Dead reliable |
It's quiet, very very hot on high, and has run for over a year with intermittent use without issue, including a run of several continuous hours thawing pipes. My latest use was this morning, freeing a tractor loader valve that stuck in position overnight in sub-zero temps.
You might think that having two heat ranges is unnecessary - after all, you can just pull the gun back and effectively deliver less heat. But in fact, there are times when the lower heat setting is useful. When putting heat into a wall, for example, you want to deliver as much airflow as possible - not just heat - so getting closer with the lower temp is actually better. WARNING - the "low" temp setting of 570 degrees is still hot enough to start a wood or paper fire! Be careful!
It is also helpful in some applications to deliver heat without overheating. Finally, lower heat is safer.
The wire bail on the back of the gun is handy for two things: supporting the gun in place while you heat something "handheld" (usually with a tool, like pliers), and cooling the gun after use so the tip isn't in contact with anything flammable or damageable by heat.
Like most Milwaukee products, this is well-built and reliable. |

Great Product |
|
We used this heat gun to scrape off years of old glue and other gunk from our wood floors to restore them. It worked pretty well. The gun is of good construction and operates pretty quietly. I also use it on low power with the window sealing kits. |

Shrink Tubing |
|
The heat gun works great on shrink tubing. We repair trailer wiring and the heat gun is faster and much safer then using a torch. |

Works Great |
|
Bought this heat gun to remove and replace some old linoleum/vinyl floor tiles. The heat gun quickly loosened the adhesive and the tiles for easy removal. I recommend this product. |

Perfect |

Did everything I needed. I use it to strip paint and varnish off of wooden doors. Had it on for hours, no problems. |
