Key Features & Benefits

- 5-second heat-up time — reaches working temperature of 300°C in five seconds, 40% faster than comparable corded models for instant productivity.
- Ultra-lightweight at 0.7 kg — one of the lightest cordless heat guns on the market, reducing arm fatigue during overhead or extended use.
- 200 L/min air volume — delivers concentrated airflow for efficient heat transfer across the work surface.
- LED work light — illuminates the target area for precision work in dimly lit spaces like under dashboards or inside switchboards.
- CAS battery compatibility — shares batteries across the Cordless Alliance System with brands including Metabo, ensuring maximum battery utilisation across your workshop.
When to Use This Heat Gun
The HG 18 LTX 500 excels in applications where cord-free mobility matters — shrinking cable sleeves at height on a ladder, softening adhesive on a vehicle panel outdoors, or stripping paint in tight spaces without dragging an extension lead. The 300°C setting handles most heat shrink and adhesive softening, while 500°C is reserved for paint stripping and plastic welding. Over 20 minutes runtime on a LiHD 8.0 Ah pack.
