Product Description

Manufactured in the United Kingdom, the ShrinKit MK III heat gun is a specialised tool designed for efficiently applying shrink wrap to pallets and other large items, using a high-temperature flame to evenly heat shrink wrap materials, causing them to contract tightly around the items being packaged.

This handheld heat shrink gun is best used in conjunction with shrink polythene (often referred to as shrink film), heat-shrink pallet covers (also known as pallet bags) and sheeting. You can achieve a fast, cost-effective and highly protective solution for your packaging, containment and weather protection requirements, ensuring all pallets and products are tightly wrapped whilst in transit.

Weighing only 1.1kg, ShrinKit’s heat guns are portable, economical, safe and easy to operate, and competitively priced. Maintenance costs are low, but rest assured that should any problems arise, ShrinKit provides a 12-month guarantee for the MK III.

The MK III is stronger, safer, more powerful, easier to operate and more comfortable to handle than older versions of the ShrinKit heat gun.

Useful Spare Parts and Accessories


8m Hose

8m Hose

A flexible hose that connects the heat gun to the fuel source. The length allows for ample manoeuvrability and reach around large pallets or items being wrapped.

Spark Generator

Spark Generator

A device used to ignite the fuel inside the heat gun. It produces a spark that initiates the combustion process, enabling the heat gun to produce the necessary heat for shrink-wrapping.

Electrode

Electrode

A component that works in conjunction with the spark generator to produce a spark for ignition. It’s typically made of a durable metal that can withstand high temperatures and repeated use.

Trigger mechanism on the heat gun

Trigger

The control mechanism on the heat gun used to activate and regulate the flow of fuel. Pulling the trigger starts the fuel flow and ignition process, allowing the user to control the heat output as needed.

Regulator

Regulator

A device that controls the pressure of the fuel coming from the fuel source. It ensures a consistent and safe flow of fuel to the heat gun, which is essential for steady and reliable operation.

8m Over Braided Hose

8m Over Braided Hose

This type of hose is reinforced with an outer braid, typically made of metal or a strong synthetic material, which adds durability and resistance to abrasion, cuts, and wear. This is important for industrial environments where the hose might be subjected to rough handling.

8m Hose with Springs

8m Hose with Springs

A hose that is equipped with protective springs, usually at the ends, to prevent kinking and excessive bending that can cause damage or restrict the flow of fuel. The springs add an extra layer of protection and durability.

Swivel Joint

Swivel Joint

A rotating connector that allows the hose to pivot freely without twisting. This feature enhances the manoeuvrability of the heat gun and prevents the hose from tangling or becoming damaged due to twisting motions.
