Ripack 3000 Heat Shrink Gun — the professional choice for boats, machinery & scaffolding
The Ripack 3000 is the flagship heat gun of the Ripack range, built for shrinking heavy-duty film over large surfaces: boats, machinery, industrial equipment and scaffolding. It is the tool the shrink wrap we supply is designed to be used with.
Why the 3000 — and not a lighter gun
Our shrink wrap film is 200 micron: thick, tough and made for large objects. A lighter pallet gun struggles with that. The Ripack 3000 delivers 45 to 76 kW of adjustable power — significantly more than lighter models — so it shrinks thick 200 micron film fast and evenly, even across a full boat hull or a scaffold face. Trying to shrink heavy film with an underpowered gun means slow work, uneven finish and poor weather protection. With the 3000 you get a tight, rigid, professional result every time.
- High power (45–76 kW): shrinks thick 180–250 micron film quickly — built for large surfaces, not just pallets
- Wraps a full Euro-pallet in under a minute — handles 100–150 large jobs a day under intensive use
- Extension wands available (0.5 to 2 m): reach the top of a boat, machine or scaffold without bending or ladders
- Securipack safety system: auto-detects gas bottle pressure to prevent overheating, and cuts the gas if the hose is damaged
- Patented cold nozzle: the stainless steel diffuser stays cool even during long sessions — no burns, no damage to surfaces
- Fast tool-free piezo igniter change — minimal downtime
- 10-year warranty on the tool
