Heat Gun 2000W — Deli DL391201 Professional Hot Air Gun (400°C/600°C, Two-Speed)
Deli DL391201 Heat Gun 2000W — Dual Temperature Hot Air Gun with 4 Nozzles
A professional-grade 2000W hot air gun built for paint stripping, PVC and WPC panel bending, shrink-wrapping, pipe thawing and adhesive work. Two temperature stages, two airflow speeds and a stable upside-down stand make it equally at home on a construction site or a workshop bench.
What the Deli DL391201 Heat Gun Does
One tool that replaces the blowtorch, the chemical stripper and the guesswork.
The Deli DL391201 is a 2000-watt electric heat gun — also called a hot air gun or hot air blower — that produces a controlled stream of hot air instead of an open flame.
A high-output ceramic-insulated heating element warms air drawn in by the motor fan, and the airflow leaves the nozzle at either 400 °C on the low stage or 600 °C on the high stage.
Because the heat is flameless and directional, it softens, shrinks, dries, bends and loosens materials without scorching the surface underneath — which is why it has become a standard tool for painters, plumbers, electricians, interior fit-out teams, signage makers, automotive workshops and DIY renovators across Kenya.
The two-speed airflow control (300 L/min and 500 L/min) lets you match the volume of air to the job — gentle on heat-shrink tubing and vinyl wrap, aggressive on old gloss paint and stubborn floor adhesive. A moulded rear stand allows the gun to sit stable upside down, turning it into a hands-free bench heat source for soldering, shrinking and softening small parts.
2000W Rated Power
Heavy-duty element reaches working temperature in seconds and holds it under continuous load.
Two-Stage Temperature
Switch between 400 °C and 600 °C to suit delicate plastics or heavy paint removal.
Two-Speed Airflow
300 L/min for precision work, 500 L/min for fast coverage on large surfaces.
Stable Upside Down
Flat-base design lets the gun stand nozzle-up for safe, hands-free bench operation.

What's in the Box
Every DL391201 heat gun ships complete with a five-piece working kit — nothing extra to buy.
Heat Gun Unit
DL391201 · 2000W main tool with two-stage temperature and two-speed airflow control.
Scraper
For lifting softened paint, varnish and vinyl cleanly off timber, metal and masonry.
Three-Section Air Nozzle
Spreads heat evenly over wide, flat surfaces — ideal for panels and large stripping jobs.
Curved Shovel Nozzle
Deflects heat around pipes and away from glass, so window frames and glazing stay protected.
Flat Air Nozzle
Concentrates a narrow blade of hot air for precise, targeted work on small areas and joints.
How to Use the Deli 2000W Heat Gun — Step by Step
Follow this sequence every time for safe, consistent results and long tool life.
Inspect before you plug in
Check the cord, plug and housing for damage. Make sure the rear air intake grille is clear of dust, shavings or cloth — a blocked intake is the single most common cause of heat-gun element failure.
Fit the correct nozzle while the gun is cold
Push the required nozzle onto the outlet barrel: flat nozzle for narrow, targeted heat; three-section nozzle for broad even coverage; curved shovel nozzle when working around pipes or next to glass. Never change nozzles on a hot gun.
Prepare the work area
Work in a ventilated space, clear flammable materials to at least one metre, and protect adjacent surfaces. For paint removal, lay a drop sheet to catch the scrapings. Wear heat-resistant gloves and safety glasses.
Select temperature and airflow
Start on Stage I (400 °C / 300 L/min). Only move to Stage II (600 °C / 500 L/min) if the material is not responding. Starting low protects plastics, veneers and painted substrates from scorching.
Hold at the right distance and keep moving
Keep the nozzle 25–50 mm from the surface and sweep steadily back and forth. Holding the gun still in one spot burns the material and can crack glass or tile. Let the heat build gradually.
Work the material as it softens
For paint: heat a 150 mm patch until it bubbles, then lift it immediately with the supplied scraper at a shallow angle while still hot. For heat-shrink or wrap: rotate around the joint evenly. For PVC/WPC trim: heat the bend zone slowly and bend in one smooth movement.
Use the upside-down stand for small parts
Set the gun on its flat base with the nozzle facing up, switch on, and bring the workpiece to the airflow. Ideal for shrinking terminals, softening small mouldings or freeing seized fittings.
Cool down correctly, then store
Switch to the low stage for 1–2 minutes before switching off, so the fan cools the element. Let the nozzle cool completely on a non-flammable surface before packing away. Coil the cord loosely — never around a hot barrel.

Safety Precautions
A heat gun reaches 600 °C. Treat the airflow with the same respect you would a flame.

Fourteen Rules to Work By
- Never point the gun at people, animals or yourself — the air alone causes severe burns.
- Never use it as a hair dryer or to dry clothing.
- Keep it away from flammables — do not use near petrol, thinners, gas or any flammable vapour.
- Never block the nozzle or the rear air intake while the gun is running; it will overheat and fail.
- Do not leave it unattended while running, even when resting on its stand.
- Wear protection — heat-resistant gloves, safety glasses and a dust mask when stripping paint.
- Assume old paint contains lead in buildings from before 1980. Ventilate the room and mask up.
- Protect glass and plastics — keep the nozzle away from glass, PVC conduit and cables unless using the curved shovel nozzle.
- Check what is behind the surface — look for insulation or cabling behind wall panels and under eaves before heating.
- Allow a full cool-down before storage; the nozzle stays dangerously hot for several minutes after switch-off.
- Keep water or an extinguisher nearby whenever you are stripping a large area.
- Keep it dry — never immerse the tool or use it in rain or wet conditions.
- Unplug before changing nozzles, removing the scraper or cleaning any attachment.
- Keep out of reach of children and supervise anyone using it for the first time.
Frequently Asked Questions
The questions our customers in Rongai, Tuala, Kiserian, Ngong and Karen ask most.
What is the price of the Deli DL391201 heat gun in Kenya?
The Deli DL391201 2000W heat gun retails at KSh 2,500 per piece at Shabbiri Hardware, complete with the scraper and three nozzles. Contractors, fundis and bulk buyers should call 0741 042484 or 0745 554008 for trade pricing.
What temperature does this heat gun reach?
It has two fixed temperature stages: 400 °C on the low setting and 600 °C on the high setting, paired with airflow of 300 L/min and 500 L/min respectively.
Can I use it to bend PVC and WPC wall panels?
Yes. Use the low 400 °C stage with the three-section nozzle, heat the bend zone evenly and slowly, then form the bend in one movement and hold it until cool. This is one of the most common uses among our interior finishing customers.
Will it remove old paint from metal and wood?
Yes — that is what the 600 °C stage and the supplied scraper are designed for. Heat a small patch until the paint blisters, then lift it immediately with the scraper held at a shallow angle. It works on gloss, enamel, oil paint and varnish.
Does it work on normal Kenyan power?
Yes. It is rated 220–240 V, 50/60 Hz and plugs into a standard Kenyan socket. On a 2000 W draw, use a properly rated socket and avoid running it on a long, thin extension reel.
What is the difference between a heat gun and a blowtorch?
A blowtorch produces an open flame and can easily char timber or ignite fumes. A heat gun produces flameless hot air, which is controllable, safer indoors and far less likely to scorch the surface — making it the correct tool for paint stripping, plastics and finishing work.
Do you deliver outside Nairobi?
Yes. We arrange courier or matatu-parcel delivery countrywide. Send your location on WhatsApp to 0741 042484 and we will confirm the delivery cost before dispatch.
Do you install or do fabrication work?
Shabbiri Hardware is supply-only — we do not carry out installation or fabrication. However, we are happy to share contacts of independent installers and fundis who regularly work with our materials.
How do I pay?
Cash or card at either branch, or M-Pesa using Paybill 542 542, Account 78653. Always request a receipt and confirm the M-Pesa message with our counter staff before collection.
