Shrink guns

Shrink guns

We are a dealer of the SHRINKFAST® Spitfire and SHRINKFAST® 975.
Crimp guns are indispensable tools in the world of professional packaging. They are specially designed for efficient and tight shrink wrapping of goods, which is essential for both storage and transport. With their ease of use and excellent performance, our shrink guns and shrink films offer a reliable method to protect your products against external influences.
The shrink guns are supplied complete, you only need to purchase a gas bottle. We also offer a gas bottle trolley as an option.

Use of Crimp Guns

Using a shrink gun is simple: place the shrink film over the item, activate the shrink gun and move it along the film. The emitted heat shrinks the foil, causing it to form tightly around the object. This process is not only fast, but also extremely accurate, which ensures tight and safe packaging. One person can seal a pallet of 120 x 100 x 100cm in less than 2 minutes.

Efficiency

With a powerful heat output, the shrink gun ensures rapid shrinkage of film around any product. This saves time and energy, allowing you to do more in less time.

Portability

Our shrink guns are lightweight and ergonomically designed, making them easy to handle during long-term packaging projects.

Safety

Safety is another crucial aspect of the Spitfire 200. The appliance is equipped with safety features such as a ‘dead man’ switch which ensures that the flame is immediately extinguished if the user releases the handle. In addition, the shrink gun is designed so that heat is centralized and exhaust gases are directed away from the user, reducing the risk of burns.

Our shrink guns contain various safety mechanisms. As soon as the trigger is released, the flame automatically shuts off. Also, the Shrinkfast SF Tools patented combustion cycle allows the flame to burn outside the nozzle. However, even after intensive use of the Shrinkfast shrink gun, the handle and mouthpiece of the Shrinkfast remain cool. In addition, the regulator has an automatic safety catch that automatically shuts off the propane supply in the event of leakage or rupture of the hose.
