Silicone Heaters | Spiral Pipe Heating Products for Pipework

Product Overview

Silicone Heaters

Heatfast spiral silicone heaters are designed to suit a range of either rigid or flexible, small diameter pipes and are suitable for many applications including gas or fluid delivery, semi conductor processes, frost protection, anti condensation and heat loss maintenance.

Spiral silicone heaters have good resistance to weather & ageing, fungus & bacteria, acetone, alcohol, formic acid, brake fluid, acetic acid, greases, hydrochloric acid 10%, sulphuric Acid 10%, waxes and plasticisers.

Heatfast silicone heaters maximum operating temperature of 200°C and the option to add a variety of temperature sensors, spiral heaters.

There are a wide range of uses for spiral heaters for pipe heating applications where a surface temperature up to 200°C is required as they are well suited to fit both straight or curved pipework.

For complete heat tracing of complex mechanical services and pipework systems in both industrial and hazardous area locations we can provide a full range of heating cables and trace heating systems.
