Understanding the Different Types of Tabular Heating Elements and Their Applications

Image
Tabular heating elements are a crucial component in industrial processes and manufacturing, providing heat to a wide range of applications. However, with so many different types of tabular heating elements available, it can be difficult to know which one is the best fit for your specific needs. In this blog, we'll provide a comprehensive guide to the different types of tabular heating elements and their applications, to help you make an informed decision.   Different Types of Tabular Heating Elements Molybdenum Disilicide (MoSi2): These heating elements are known for their high temperature capabilities and excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion. They are often used in applications that require temperatures up to 1700°C. Silicon Carbide (SiC): These heating elements are similar to MoSi2 in terms of temperature capabilities and resistance to oxidation and corrosion. They are often used in applications that require temperatures up to 1600°C. Nickel-Chromium (NiCr): Th...

What You Need To Know Before Buying A Cartridge Heater

Image
A cartridge heater is a type of electric heating element that is designed to be inserted into a cylindrical hole. These heaters are commonly used in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications, such as plastic injection molding, packaging, and food processing. However, before buying a cartridge heater, there are several factors that must be considered in order to ensure that you get the right heater for your specific application. Watt density: The watt density of a cartridge heater is the amount of power that is delivered per square inch of the heating element. A higher watt density will provide more heat in a smaller area, but it can also increase the risk of thermal damage. Therefore, it is important to choose a watt density that is appropriate for your specific application.  Size and shape: The size and shape of the cartridge heater must be considered in order to ensure that it will fit properly in the application it is being used for. The heater should be the c...
