New at Summit Racing: ECG Mini Heat Gun and Shrink Tube Kits
Using shrink tubing on electrical connections is a great way to protect them from damaging corrosion and keep the connections secure. Shrink tube does require a heat source to well, shrink them to proper size. Using a large, bulky heat gun or that hair dryer you swiped from the bathroom can be cumbersome, and the heat setting is often hot enough to melt the tubing instead of merely shrinking it.
It should be no surprise that Summit Racing has the solution to the heat gun problem. The ECG Mini Heat Gun and Shrink Tube Kits feature a 360 watt heat gun sized to fit in tight spots where wiring connectors often lurk. The guns have two temperature settings (482 and 662 degrees F), a built-in safety shield on the nozzle, two speed blower motor, and a high-quality heating element. They also have a built-in support bracket for self-support and tabletop use.
The ECG Mini Heat Gun Kits are available with a choice of shrink tubing types:
• Kit HS-9 has 4-inch long tubing in 1/16, 3/32, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, and 3/8 inch diameters. The tubing comes in seven colors (black, red, clear, green, blue, yellow, and white) that make this kit ideal for color-coded wiring harnesses
• Kit HS-2 comes with 2.5 inch long black tubing in 1/16, 3/32, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, and 3/8 inch diameters
The ECG Mini Heat Gun is also ideal for controlled thawing or drying out of electrical parts and heat forming some plastics.
