Great little tool I have used twice to heat stuck parts.

I bought this pencil butane torch last year to heat a screw locktited on my FWB 65. Worked like a charm. This week I could not get the Haenel 28-R rear cap to let go. Heated it briefly and off it came. What is nice is the the flame is so small and contained, it easy to control and not go overboard. Flame is probably only 1/4 inch long. Could put right on screw head. I tried various soldering irons and just could not get enough heat to do anything.

I have a couple of different units like that using liquid butane gas, I think one of the handiest available is the Dremel 2200 Versaflame. Handy for heating seized parts and lead soldering, but never had much success with silver soldering especially parts that are chunky.

To be used in a well ventilated area,expect some collateral damage .

Got a similar pencil torch, the flame is hot enough to get a spring hot enough to bend the end flat when shortening a spring.

Very useful.

Mine was a cheapy, looses all its gas between uses though :-(
