Located in a modern manufacturing facility in Racine, Wisconsin, we introduced the first industrial quality heat gun to the worldwide marketplace in 1958. In 1985, we introduced the first butane powered soldering iron/heat tools to the North American marketplace. Today our heat tools are used for drying, heating, welding, shrinking, soldering and for many other applications where heat is the need. With six decades of experience, we don't just make heat tools...we make heat tools BETTER.
