Heat Shrinkers
What are Heat Shrinkers?
Heat shrinkers are used for a number of reasons from stripping paint to shrink wrapping and are used in a variety of industries too - Available as either heat shrink chambers or heat shrink guns.
These tools are most often found paired with shrink wrap films in order to create a tight seal around bundles of items or packages - no matter the shape. They're also favorable for use with shrink tubing for an effective form of wire and other electrical cable protection; it doesn't wear or loose its grip over time like some electrical tapes might.
These devices work by having the film of choice first wrapped around the object, then the heat source from these tools force the wrap to tighten and mold around the object to keep it secure and protected.
