Description of the device:
The Proxxon Heat Gun MH 550 is a compact,
yet powerful device for thousands of func-
tions, whether this involves
drying freshly painted surfaces, or
• removing stickers and films,
• welding plastics,
• shaping plastics,
- 8 -
• thawing water pipes, for example, but of
course all kinds of other things,
• removing coats of paint and, e.g., putty,
• loosening stuck screw joints,
• drying wood,
• or when working with heat-shrink tubes.
The ergonomically shaped MH 550 is a per-
fect fit for your hand and makes work suc-
ceed quickly and perfectly: Even soft
soldering of electrical connections, the accel-
eration of curing procedures (e.g. for adhe-
sives or resins), decorative browning of
wood, and, and, and...
For all its high performance and its useful-
ness, the device is still surprisingly compact:
The small and light MH 550 enables fatigue-
proof work, and its 1.8 m long mains cable
provides an appropriately large operating
range. The greatest possible flexibility is pro-
vided by the 3 included attachment nozzles
(reflector nozzle, spot nozzle, flat nozzle):
The shape of the air flow can be optimally
adapted to the respective work task.
We made the housing of sturdy glass fibre
reinforced plastic and integrated soft compo-
nents for a comfortable grip. Defined foot-
prints enable stationary use; the device can
also be set up and then held securely by an
adjustable wire stand. A powerful heating el-
ement with sophisticated temperature control
ensures a consistent temperature in 2 set-
tings with an air flow of 150 l/min.
And to prevent scorching, overheating protec-
tion has been included for your safety.
