Optimally shaped flat Non-scratch Teflon® coating 12-foot power cord High/low selectable heat Includes 2 shoes
Overview Having the right tool for the job makes any task easier. If you want a professional covering job, you need professional quality tools. That's where the Hangar 9® ProTrim™ Sealing Tool comes in handy. It's perfect for quality-minded modelers who want to achieve the best possible finishing results with minimal effort.
The Hangar 9 ProTrim Sealing Tool comes with two shoes: one round and one flat. These shoes have been optimized with the correct angle for covering tight and hard-to-reach places. Furthermore, both shoes have Teflon® coating for a smooth scratch- and dent-free finish.
By simply loosening two screws at the head of the ProTrim Sealing Tool, you can easily switch from the flat shoe, which is used in areas with sharp angles (such as the junction between the stabilizer/fin and hinge gaps) to the round shoe for making concave areas look as smooth as a painted surface—perfect for use on concave fillets and Hornerwing tips.
The ProTrim has two temperature settings, low and high, that are controlled through a slide switch. If needed, you can mechanically fine tune the temperature by adjusting how deep the shoe is located in the tool. On low, the temperature setting can range from 186°F to 215°F. On high, the temperature setting can range from 270°F to 318°F.
The ProTrim is supplied with an extra long 12' cord, making it great for covering large airplanes. It also comes with a table-top stand to protect your work surface from burns. Plus, the ProTrim has a 2-year limited warranty, making it an exceptional value. Pick up the right tool for the job and seal your next project to perfection. Details count.

RC Covering Tools and Sealing Irons
Applying heat-shrink covering film calls for tools that manage heat and trim edges cleanly, and this category collects RC covering tools for that work. The selection covers the irons, heat sources, and cutting aids a builder uses when skinning a wing or fuselage.
Irons and Heat Sources
A Top Flite heat gun shrinks film across open bays, while a Teflon-coated custom heat sealing iron handles seams and edges. A Coverite iron thermometer helps set a repeatable temperature, and a sealing iron cover, a felt or fabric sock over the shoe, protects the film from scuffing on a second pass.
Cutting and Trimming
A circle cutter, with replacement blades available, cuts clean discs and curves in film or trim sheet. This is useful for windows, roundels, and other rounded detail work that is hard to cut freehand.
