    Tempco Immersion Cartridge Heaters

    Immersion Cartridge Heaters

    These heaters are designed for heating water and other liquids. The high watt density capabilities of this heater permit greater heat dissipation in a given area than would a tubular immersion heater. For water heating, watt densities of several hundred watts per square inch are possible; oil heating may be limited to 5 to 20 watts per square inch.

    Tempco Pennybottom Cartridge Heaters

    Pennybottom Cartridge Heaters

    The unique feature of the Pennybottom™ cartridge heater is the use of a flat copper end disc to maximize heat transfer and improve temperature sensing. The Pennybottom™ cartridge heater also includes a Type J thermocouple at the end disc. The junction is grounded to the flat copper end disc, providing excellent temperature control at the gating area, eliminating freeze-ups or drool, thus producing quality molded parts.

    Tempco Bolt Cartridge Heaters

    Bolt Cartridge Heaters

    Bolt Heaters are used as an aid to tighten large bolts in heavy machinery and equipment. Heaters are sized for easy insertion into a hollow bolt. The rapid heating of the bolt expands it, allowing further tightening of the nut. The heater is then de-energized and removed. As the bolt cools, its contraction back to original size provides a tight fit.
