Silicone Wire Wound Heaters

Rugged. Reliable. Accurate. High-strength fiberglass reinforced silicone rubber gives the wire wound heater dimensional stability without sacrificing flexibility. Moisture and chemical resistant, HEATFLEX can be vulcanized to conform to the contours of irregularly shaped parts, equipping our wire wound heating elements with the exceptional ability to fit over your custom component and follow compound curves.

  • High watt densities
  • Excellent repeatability
  • Better choice for high flex applications
  • Flexible heaters adapt to contoured surfaces with ease
  • Freeze protection and condensation prevention
  • Resistant to many chemicals
  • Economically facilitates high resistance applications and heater sizes not lending themselves to the etching process
  • Global agency approvals: UL, CSA, TUV on most configurations.
