Sealey VS230 Induction Heater, 2000W This professional 2000W induction heater delivers powerful, targeted heat for releasing seized components and performing body repairs without using open flames. The mid-weight 8.12kg unit balances substantial power with reasonable portability, producing 16V/60A output at 100kHz for effective metal heating. Supplied with seven specialised attachments: two direct coils (Ø20mm and Ø30mm), two side coils (Ø20mm and Ø30mm), a pad coil (Ø55mm), a 920mm flexible coil, and a Ø29mm adaptor, this versatile kit handles diverse automotive tasks from freeing rusted fasteners to removing adhesives. Featuring high/low power selection and operating from standard 230V power, this system applies intense heat precisely where needed while eliminating fire hazards near sensitive vehicle components. Precision Metal Heating Tool Optimised Power Output The 2000W system delivers substantial heating capability while maintaining manageable weight and size, providing sufficient power for heavy-duty commercial applications like truck components and large fasteners without the bulk of higher-wattage units or the limited capability of smaller models. Comprehensive Attachment Set Seven specialised coils and adaptors address virtually every heating need, with direct coils for straightforward access, side coils for reaching recessed fasteners, a pad for flat surface work, and a flexible coil for wrapping around irregular components, eliminating the need for multiple heating tools. Dual Power Settings High/low power selection allows adjustment based on the specific task and component size, enabling both intense heat application for heavily seized parts and more controlled heating for delicate work near plastic components or wiring, enhancing versatility across different repair scenarios. Panel Repair Capability The included dent induction block facilitates body repair through controlled metal expansion, allowing minor dents to be removed without filler or repainting by precisely heating the metal panel to enable restoration to its original shape using standard PDR techniques. Balanced Portability At 8.12kg, this unit strikes an optimal balance between power and portability, lighter than industrial models yet substantial enough for demanding applications, with an integrated carry handle facilitating movement around vehicles during complex repair procedures. Thermal Protection The 15% duty cycle with thermal protection prevents overheating during extended use, ensuring long-term reliability while providing clear guidance on operational limits to protect both the equipment and vehicle components during intensive heating applications. Practical Applications Heavy-Duty Fastener Removal: Provides sufficient heat to release severely corroded fasteners on chassis components, exhaust systems, and suspension parts, with the 2000W output capable of effectively heating larger nuts and bolts common in commercial vehicles while the interchangeable coils accommodate different fastener sizes and access angles. Precision Body Repair: Enables controlled heating for shrinking stretched metal or removing minor dents through expansion, with the special dent induction block and pad attachments providing purpose-designed tools for paintless dent repair techniques that preserve factory finishes without requiring extensive refinishing. Professional Trim Work: Facilitates clean removal of bonded trim, badges, and decals by heating the metal beneath to soften adhesives without damaging components, supporting both removal and reinstallation of factory parts during repair procedures while eliminating adhesive residue that would require chemical cleaning.
