Heat Gun Product Range
Our range is organized by power source and form factor. Within the corded category, models are further differentiated by control type and application profile.
Corded Heat Guns (AC)
Mains-powered heat guns (corded hot air guns) for stationary and semi-stationary use. Suitable for sustained operation and higher-load applications. Available in three control types based on market tier and application requirements.
Voltage options: 110V (US/CA) | 220V (EU) | 127V (Brazil). Regional plug types available.
Lightweight, low-wattage heat guns designed for precision tasks and close-range work. Well-suited for craft, embossing, heat-shrink tubing, small adhesive applications, and hobby use. The compact form factor is a primary selling point for retail and gift-channel programs.
Typical model: MJHG026
Power: 350W
Temp range: 230°C—400°C
Two fixed heat settings — 350°C and 600°C — with 300/500 L/min airflow. The 2000W design provides straightforward heat control for general-purpose applications and price-focused retail or private-label programs. Best suited to buyers who prioritize simple operation and standard heat-gun performance over precise temperature adjustment.
Typical models: HG8-E202
Power: 2000W
Temp range: 350–600°C
Two fixed heat settings — low and high. Commonly used for price-driven retail programs and entry-level private-label sourcing. Reliable for general-purpose tasks; not recommended for prolonged high-load or temperature-sensitive applications.
Typical models: HG12-E202
Power: 1600–2000W
Temp range: 350–600°C
Continuously adjustable temperature via rotary knob. Balanced cost and control flexibility. Frequently selected for private-label OEM programs targeting the DIY and light professional segment.
Typical model: HG14-E202X
Power: 2000W
Temp range: 60–600°C
Precise set-point temperature control with digital display. Designed for professional and higher-margin market programs. Preferred for temperature-sensitive applications where repeatability matters.
Typical model: HG14-E202S
Power: 2000W
Temp range: 60–600°C
Battery-powered hot air guns for mobile and fieldwork applications. Designed for integration into cordless tool ecosystems. Operating duration is battery-dependent — not a substitute for corded models in sustained high-load use.
Typical models: KB-8002
Platform: 18V/20V Li-ion
Temp range: 50–550°C

OEM & Private Label Heat Gun Manufacturing
Most heat gun programs start from our existing, market-validated product structures. This reduces development risk while maintaining flexibility for branding and specification adjustments. ODM development is available on qualified programs.
We sign NDA on request before technical discussions begin.
Standard Customization Options
Housing color: Pantone reference accepted; standard and custom finishes available
Logo & branding: Molded, pad-printed, or label integration
Nozzle & accessory kit: Standard and custom nozzle combinations per application profile
Power cord & plug type: EU (C/F), US/CA (A/B), UK (G), AU (I), Brazil (N); cord length adjustable
Retail & bulk packaging: Full carton, retail box, insert, and multilingual documentation
User manual & labeling: Multilingual manuals, regulatory labels, and market-specific documentation prepared to destination market requirements
Engineering-Level Customization
For buyers with specific performance requirements beyond standard configurations:
Airflow calibration: Adjusted airflow output to match application-specific requirements
Temperature control tolerance: Tighter set-point accuracy for programs requiring repeatable output within ±5°C or better
Heater element specification: Component-level sourcing aligned to target service life or market tier
Safety certification alignment: Configuration adjusted to meet specific test requirements for CE, GS, or UL pathways before sampling begins
Quality Control in Heat Gun Manufacturing
Quality requirements are defined according to the selected model and confirmed specification. Inspection is carried out at three stages.
Incoming Material Inspection
Heating elements, control boards, switches, housings, power cords, and other key components are checked against the approved requirements before assembly. Materials that do not meet the specification are separated before entering production.
In-Process and Functional Testing
Testing is performed according to the model and inspection plan. It may include:
Heating-element continuity and resistance
Airflow and temperature-control function
Switch and control operation
Electrical insulation and dielectric-strength testing
Housing assembly and visual inspection
No-load running or burn-in testing when specified
The exact test items and acceptance criteria are confirmed before production.
Pre-Shipment Inspection
Finished goods are inspected for product function, appearance, labeling, packaging, accessories, and order quantity before shipment. Sampling standards and reporting requirements can be agreed upon as part of the order.
Inspection records or third-party inspection arrangements can be discussed before production.
Certifications & Market Compliance
Compliance requirements are reviewed according to the selected model, voltage, plug type, component configuration, and destination market.
Requirements such as CE, GS, RoHS, REACH, UKCA, UL, or ETL can be evaluated before sampling. We confirm whether existing documentation applies to the proposed configuration or whether additional testing, component changes, or certification work is required.
Any related cost, sample requirements, and lead time are confirmed before the project proceeds. Certification availability is model-specific; not every certificate applies to every configuration.
How an OEM Heat Gun Project Works
Requirement Review
Share the target market, preferred model, voltage, plug type, expected quantity, packaging requirements, and required compliance documents.
Model Recommendation
We review the requirements and recommend an existing model or determine whether technical modification is necessary.
Quotation and Project Confirmation
The quotation defines the product configuration, customization scope, MOQ, sample cost, tooling requirements, and estimated schedule.
Sample Preparation
Samples are prepared according to the agreed configuration. Custom colors, packaging, accessories, or technical changes may require additional preparation time.
Sample Approval
Product specifications, appearance, packaging, labels, and accessories are confirmed before mass production. The approved details become the reference for the order.
Production and Inspection
Production is arranged according to the approved specification. Quality checks are completed under the agreed inspection plan.
Shipment Preparation
Products are packed according to the confirmed requirements. Shipping marks, export documents, inspection arrangements, and delivery details are checked before dispatch.
Why Source OEM Heat Guns from FirstRate
Manufacturer-direct
Heat guns are produced in our own facility. We control the production process, tooling, and QC procedures directly. FirstRate also has a trading function that supports export logistics and documentation — but production is not outsourced to a third-party factory.
Compliance confirmed before production
CE and GS scope for EU programs, UL pathway for North America — these are reviewed with the buyer before samples are made. This is a structured process step, not something addressed retroactively after goods are packed.
Specifications locked before repeat orders
Parameters agreed at the first order stage are documented. Reorders do not require renegotiating specifications that were already confirmed. This matters for buyers managing multi-cycle import programs.
Engineering support from the specification stage
For programs with specific performance requirements — airflow calibration, temperature tolerance, component specification — we work with buyers before sampling. Late-stage changes are the most expensive kind.
