Steinel Hot-Air Tool HeatMatic 1920 E – for the Right Temperature when Plastic Welding
If you work with plastic horseshoes, sooner or later it will find its way into your tool cabinet: the hot-air tool, also known as hot-air gun.

The areas of application for the hot air tool are many, including the following:
- if you want to plastic weld a composite or purely plastic horseshoe with glue-on tabs
- if you want to modify a horseshoe with open sole area, with the help of our Hoof Sole Protector into a horseshoe with closed sole area
- if you want to laterally enlarge a horseshoe or extend it to the back with the help of our Extensions
- for punctual fixation when using wedge plates
- if you want to decorate your purely plastic or composite horseshoe with our colored stripes
- for welding on the blueline® weld-on clips as quarter clips or toe clips
The Steinel HeatMatic 1920 E hot air tool offers precise control of the temperature and air volume to provide optimum welding conditions.
Thanks to its powerful heating capacity, the HeatMatic 1920 E can quickly reach a high temperature which is required to melt plastic parts to create a stable bond.
Precise control of the temperature is particularly important to ensure that the plastic parts are not damaged or burned. When it comes to controlling the hot air flow, the matching reduction nozzle is essential. You can also buy it from us.
Please follow the manufacturer's current safety instructions when working with the heat gun. These are included with the device. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for the task and ensure adequate ventilation.

Tips & Tricks
The Welding Device
We've developed our welding device specifically for creating strong weld seams for your glue-on horseshoes. Each device comes with a reduction nozzle included. The heat gun itself is not included with the scope of delivery of our welding devices and must be purchased separately.
New model from Steinel – HM 1920 E replaces HL 1920 E
Most of the current photos still show the previous model, the blue-black Steinel HL 1920 E. We've checked with the manufacturer and confirmed that the new model – the HeatMatic 1920 E – is also compatible with the reduction nozzle we offer.
