A tool for removing a split-sleeve heater from a target object, such as a hot runner nozzle body, is provided that includes a handle, a shaft extending from the handle, and a protrusion disposed around at least a portion of a distal end portion of the shaft. The protrusion defines a shoulder, and the shoulder is adapted to engage a removal feature of the split-sleeve heater. In another form, a split-sleeve heater is provided that includes a heater body having opposed ends and a slot extending between the opposed ends. A recess is formed conjointly with the slot proximate at least one of the opposed ends, which is adapted for engagement by a removal tool. Methods of operating the tool and forming the slot of the split-sleeve heater are also provided.
