About Shrinkfast
Founded in 1970 and headquartered in Newport, New Hampshire, Shrinkfast has spent more than five decades engineering some of the most trusted propane-powered heat tools in the industry. Shrinkfast heat tools are manufactured in the United States and have earned UL safety certification — a distinction that speaks directly to the brand's unwavering commitment to quality and operator safety. The flagship Model 998 (now known as the Shrinkfast 200) has also received the CE mark of approval, making it recognized internationally as a benchmark in its class.
At the heart of the Shrinkfast lineup are its iconic heat guns — portable, propane-fired tools designed to shrink film quickly and evenly around virtually any shape or size of object. Whether you're winterizing a boat dockside, securing a pallet load in a warehouse, wrapping heavy machinery for long-haul transport, or building scaffolding enclosures at a job site, a Shrinkfast heat gun delivers professional-grade results with minimal setup time. The fan-shaped combustor design distributes heat steadily and evenly across wide surface areas, and the adjustable power output gives operators precise control over the shrinking process.
Beyond the tools themselves, Shrinkfast offers a comprehensive range of shrink wrap film and accessories to round out a complete system. Compatible hoses, regulators, quick-disconnect extensions, replacement parts, and carrying cases mean that professionals and serious hobbyists alike can build a setup tailored to the demands of any project — from small uneven pallets to oversized industrial equipment.
The marine industry has long been one of Shrinkfast's strongest communities. Boat owners, marinas, and professional shrink wrap technicians rely on Shrinkfast tools season after season for cover and top protection that keeps vessels safe through harsh winters. A properly applied shrink wrap cover provides weatherproof, tamper-resistant protection that conforms tightly to the hull and superstructure — something no tarp can match.
Every Shrinkfast heat tool comes backed by a full one-year warranty against parts defects, and the brand's reputation for durability means many tools remain in active service well beyond that. Replacement parts are widely available, and the tools are designed to be serviced with basic hand tools — a practical advantage for professionals who depend on their equipment in the field.
