Product Name
Leister 102.949 -POWER SUPPLY CORD 2 X AWG18 X 3M (HOT JET S)
Brief Description
This product is a genuine replacement power supply cord, Leister part number 102.949, specifically designed for the Leister Hot Jet S hot air welding tool. It ensures a stable and reliable power connection, enabling the optimal performance of this compact and precise heat gun.
Popular Applications & Uses
The power supply cord facilitates the operation of the Leister Hot Jet S, which is commonly used for:- Plastic welding and fabrication, particularly in confined spaces or for detailed work.- Vehicle fairing repairs.- Shrinking of heat-shrink sleeves, films, tapes, solder sleeves, and molded parts.- Activating or dissolving solvent-free and fusion adhesives.- Drying of water-damp surfaces.- Soldering and de-soldering of SMD thru-hole components.- Welding of thermoplastic materials, single-ply flexible plastics, and modified bitumen in various forms.- Detailing work in roofing and flooring applications, including coving corners.- Bending pipes.- Removing or drying paint.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Plastic Fabrication- Automotive Service/Repair- Construction/ Building Services (e.g., roofing, flooring, foundation waterproofing)- General Manufacturing (for processes like shrinking, drying, adhesive activation)- Marine (for boat construction and repair)- Sign & Display (for advertising banner welding)- Flooring Installer or Manufacturer- Electrical Services or Products (for heat-shrink applications and soldering)
Special and Unique Features
- **Direct Compatibility:** Specifically designed as a replacement power supply cord for the Leister Hot Jet S hot air tool.- **Stable Power Delivery:** Ensures consistent and reliable electrical connection for uninterrupted tool performance.- **Enables Precision Tooling:** Supports the Leister Hot Jet S, known for its compact size, lightweight design (0.6 kg with cord), and ergonomic handle, allowing for fatigue-free and precise work in tight or heat-sensitive areas.- **Supports Advanced Control:** Facilitates the Hot Jet S's electronically steplessly controlled temperature (20-600°C) and airflow (20-80 l/min) for versatile applications.- **Swiss Quality:** Part of the Leister ecosystem, known for Swiss manufacturing quality and durability.
Key Properties
- **Product Type:** Power Supply Cord- **Part Number:** 102.949- **Wire Configuration:** 2 x AWG18- **Length:** 3 meters (3M)- **Intended Use:** Replacement cord for Leister Hot Jet S hot air tool.
Surface Compatibility
The power cord itself does not have surface compatibility, but it enables the Leister Hot Jet S to work with a variety of materials, including:- Thermoplastic materials (e.g., boards, tubes, profiles, lining membranes, coated materials, films, foams, tiles, sheets).- Single-ply flexible plastics.- Modified bitumen.- Heat-shrink sleeves, films, tapes, solder sleeves, and molded parts.- Surfaces requiring activation/dissolution of solvent-free and hot-melt adhesives.- Water-damp surfaces for drying.- RESITRIX EPDM (for roofing applications).- Rigid plastic materials such as HDPE and PP.
Known backups / known substitutes
- While generic power cords with matching specifications (2 x AWG18 x 3M) might exist, the Leister 102.949 is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement part specifically for the Hot Jet S, ensuring optimal fit and performance.- Other Leister power cables are available for different tools or with varying plug types and lengths, but they are not direct substitutes for the Hot Jet S cord (e.g., Leister power cable 3m silicone w/o plug 143.131, or IHS-100.656 for TRIAC S/ST).
Comparison Note
The Leister 102.949 power supply cord is distinct due to its specific compatibility with the Leister Hot Jet S, which is recognized as Leister's smallest and most portable hot air tool. This contrasts with power cords for larger, more powerful Leister heat guns like the TRIAC ST or TRIAC AT, which are designed for broader industrial applications such as heavy-duty plastic welding, roofing, and flooring, and typically have higher power ratings (e.g., 1500-1600W for TRIAC ST/AT vs. 460W for Hot Jet S). The 102.949 cord is integral to the Hot Jet S's ability to perform precise, detailed work where its compact size and adjustable controls are critical.
