Shrink tubing needs controlled movement
Use the lowest effective heat, keep the airflow moving, and avoid overheating insulation or connectors.
A reflector nozzle can help wrap heat around tubing when the part is safe for that approach.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a regular heat gun for electronics?
For shrink tubing, often yes with care. For component rework, a dedicated rework station may be safer and more precise.
