Our most popular product is the Cartridge Heater. We make low to medium and high watt density cartridge heaters. Cartridge heaters provide localized heat to restricted work areas requiring close thermal control. Dies, platens and a variety of other types of processing equipment are efficiently heated. Closely controlled work temperatures up to 1400º F (760º C) are obtained by a combination of heater location and proper wattage output.
