[@sherwinmarzan]

If you change heating elements they do need to bring back the glass tube?

[@SRASolderLab]

No, it was already broken in this case from the nozzle being dropped.

Price of heating element?

[@SRASolderLab]

Hi Amar, It is $13 for 110V version and $14 for 220V heating element. Links to both are in the description!

[@soundstream32]

Why there is glass when you open it?

[@SRASolderLab]

The inside of the element is constructed with a glass tube to keep the air focused to the tip of the nozzle. When the handle gets thrown around it can shatter inside. This glass piece is included in the replacement heat tubes.

@@SRASolderLab i just bought a 738H i hear a noise when i shake the gun, i open it and there was a little piece of glas ,the air gun seems to work well can i still use it as this ?

[@comborepair]

soundstream32 if its just a small little piece it will work perfectly fine. If it’s mostly missing though I would say replace it just in case.
