Turn Up the Heat

Master Appliance Corp. (Racine, WI) has introduced its new, butane-powered, Model MT-30 Table-Top Microtorch for applications including shrinking tubing and specialty connectors, heating and spot drying materials, and more. Its self-contained design, says the company, also eliminates the need for external fuel tanks, costly piping or unsightly hoses. Other features include:

• A self-igniting design, producing a continuous “hands-free” adjustable flame up to 2,500 degrees F.
