Hot air gun Bosch EasyHeat 18V-500 — cordless, 72 W, 4 Ah battery, 350–450 °C, pistol handle, green

The EasyHeat 18V-500 Heat Gun is a cordless hot air tool designed for light DIY tasks such as shrinking cables and removing sticky labels. It offers even heat distribution through heat coil technology and maintains stable temperatures during use. The tool includes a Boost mode for higher-temperature jobs and a rubberised back for stable parking. It is compatible with standard Bosch DIY nozzles and is part of the 18V POWER FOR ALL system; for full performance, use batteries with 4 Ah or higher.

Advantages

The heat coil technology provides uniform heat distribution for precise application, while constant power control keeps the temperature steady over the battery run-time. The Boost mode increases temperature for demanding tasks, and the rubberised back gives a safe, slip-resistant resting position. Compatibility with the POWER FOR ALL system allows one battery to be used across multiple tools.

Suitable for

• Shrinking cable sleeves and heat-shrink tubing
• Removing adhesive labels and stickers
• Softening adhesives for light surface work
• Small high-temperature tasks using Boost mode (e.g., starting charcoal)

How to use

Fit a compatible Bosch DIY nozzle if required, insert a charged 18V battery (4 Ah or greater recommended) and switch on the tool. Select normal or Boost mode depending on the task. Hold the heat gun at a safe distance from the workpiece and move evenly to achieve the required effect. Allow the tool and treated surfaces to cool before handling and park the gun on its rubberised back when not in use.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, keep the nozzle away from flammable materials, and use Boost mode only when higher temperatures are necessary. For sustained high-power work, use batteries of 4 Ah or higher to ensure consistent performance.
