A gun for applying a thermoclaus is created as a light and affordable means to help engage in creative work: design, needlework, etc. Before its appearance, polyethylene warmed by a construction hairdryer to the melting point is considered to be the most cheap way. Thermocles today are not considered an expensive gluing tool.
Peculiarities
The manual thermochelastic gun can operate from the network voltage and from the battery. The mobility of the battery thermopystolt is important there, where it is impossible to reach even with the extension cord, for example, gluing in a special secret niche of a hidden video surveillance camera or installation of the same device in a suitcase ("diplomat").
A battery thermopystole can be easily worn in a suitcase type "diplomat", in a sports bag, backpack, etc. Being charged, it is able to work for at least 20 minutes in the mode of continuous melting of glue. The heater temperatures are enough to make the glue viscous, semi-liquid, allowing it to glue wooden and metal, rubber and plastic, cardboard and composite details to each other.
The only requirement - the glued surfaces are spinning and degreased, otherwise the connection will not hold on. Wireless thermopystoles can be equipped with a pulled or keychain module for switching the heating and temperature maintenance modes, but such models are not so in demand as simple push-button.
Overview of the best models
Thermopystole is a device designed for a rapid warming of a thermal oil pencil-rod. All models are built in the same way: the heating capsule is calculated under the standard diameters of the thermal service, the end of the rod is refilled in it. As the glue is used, the remainder of the rod is shortened. The top selection is represented by the following options.
- Bosch Gluey. It works from finger batteries AA, readiness - just a minute, heats the rods up to 150 degrees, indication of readiness for operation - ring LED. The kit includes a charger, batteries and a set of rods with a length of 2 cm and a thickness of 7 mm. The glue is served fine jet. You can cut long rods 2 cm.
- Fogo. Heating occurs in 20 seconds, the unit is designed for 7 mm rods, it works for 2 hours, as much as charging. Inside the embedded one battery by 3.7 volts. There is a battery protection from the redistribution.
- Einhell TE-CG 18. Here in the kit there is no battery. The device works from a 18 volt battery, heats up 2 minutes, heating is up to 170 degrees. The autotrusion occurs after 5 minutes of non-use, there is an indication of readiness for operation. Heating current - 5 amps, power - 90 W, 40 minutes of work.
- Tonfon (Xiaomi). Heat goes in a minute, the session lasts half an hour, after which you need to recharge the device. The warm-up temperature is up to 170 degrees.
Criterias of choice
First of all, the pistol must provide declared heating. Try to apply high-temperature thermocons with melting at 160-230 degrees. Low-temperature glue, melting at 105-120 degrees, is much less resistant: in boiling water or near heating devices, the glued design may fall apart. Do not choose models with a more kilogram weight. Such an apparatus is difficult: the hand is tired after a few minutes of work.
Focus on the front of the upcoming work: small repair will limit itself to the power of no more than 15 W. If, for example, souvenir production is put on the stream, then purchase a model with a duration of one operation session at least 2 hours, while the gun must be heated at least one or two minutes. Your time is expensive, and frequent stops will reduce your income.
If the adolescence is selected for children and adolescents, whose safety technique is above all, then to eliminate frequent random burns, select a lower-temperature model. As the snorkeling and mastery, the teenager will turn to a higher temperature unit. As for the cost, the glue-gun should not be completed with a large number of rods. It is necessary to reduce costs: you will find the desired rod glue yourself, and it will be the most optimal price and quality ratio.
If mobility is not important to you, then from the overpayment for the battery thermoclause, it is better to refuse. Knowing the circuitry of heating devices, the owner can independently display the wire for connecting the battery. Alterations are subject to only pistols, whose heating element is powered by an external or built-in power adapter. Then it is possible to connect this device at least to the car cigarette room.
