Cordless Heat Gun Makita DHG181

The Makita DHG181 is a cordless heat gun powered by an 18V LXT battery, delivering adjustable hot air up to ≈550 °C with variable airflow. This versatile tool is ideal for construction, installation, and repair tasks requiring precise temperature control.

Key Applications:

• Drying & Shrinking Materials
• Drying plaster, sealants, paint, or putty where faster curing is needed
• Shrinking heat-shrink tubing (on wires/cables)
• Removing Coatings & Surface Treatment
• Stripping old paint, varnish, or vinyl coatings
• Removing adhesive residues and mastics
• Plastic Forming & Installation
• Bending PVC pipes (e.g., for plumbing)
