Tutco's Ceramic Strip heater provides the ability to withstand higher temperatures (typically limited to 40 to 45 watts per square inch, depending on the application). The heater consists of a stainless steel sheath containing a high-temperature ceramic insulating a nickel chrome wire coil.

Tutco's versatile Tubular heaters are custom-formed in a wide variety of shapes to correspond to your requirements. Incoloy®, stainless steel or steel sheath materials are available, as well as a large selection of termination styles.

The Belly Band is built with a continuous sheath construction, providing full contact with the HVAC compressor housing, facilitating heat transfer. With a continuous sheath comes more mass, which allows the heater to operate in open air. The Belly Band comes in three varieties: single pass (standard design), double pass (for those high wattage applications), and narrow double pass (for those applications where space is limited).

The Hi-Temp is an extremely durable high temperature swaged cartridge heater. It is made to withstand a sheath temperature of up to 1400 °F (760 °C), internally up to 1600 °F (871 °C). Its swaged construction provides superior heat transfer and resistance to vibration.

Our Ultima Strip heater uses a reliable tubular heating element encased in a stainless steel sheath. Designed to withstand most corrosive and high temperature environments (up to 1200° F/648° C), the Ultima’s performance is above and beyond the norm.

The Tutco HT Mica Band is the ultimate combination of high temperature performance and flexibility operate at temperatures up to 1400°F.

As the leader in electric heating elements and sensors, Tutco offers a variety of quality strip heaters. Strip heaters can be used in a variety of applications from food warming to packaging machinery.
