Silicone Wire Wound Heaters | High-Performance Heaters by Heatron

Heatron's HEATFLEX wire wound heaters combine high-strength fiberglass-reinforced silicone rubber with rugged wire wound construction to deliver stable, flexible, and highly reliable thermal performance for custom heating components. Best for high watt density and high flex applications, they resist moisture and chemicals while conforming to irregular shapes and compound curves for consistent, controlled heat where rigid heating elements cannot perform.

  • High watt density for demanding thermal loads
  • Excellent repeatability for consistent operation
  • Flexible design conforms to contoured and irregular surfaces
  • Provides freeze protection and condensation control
  • Resistant to moisture and many industrial chemicals
  • Cost-effective for high-resistance or large heater designs
  • UL, CSA, and TÜV approvals available on most configurations
