Polyimide Insulated Flexible Heaters
Kapton® Insulated Flexible Heaters are offered in a virtually unlimited range of shapes, sizes and wattage's. Their thin design (0.005" thick), allows close thermal contact with the heat sink for maximum heating efficiency, and also permits close adaptation to the contours of your part. They can be coiled, twisted, accordion folded, bent around corners, or simply pre-formed to fit the contours of any part. They are lightweight, transparent, tough, and ideal for extremely precise applications in satellites, spacecraft and portable instruments. Their flat etched foil elements cover more area and transfer heat more efficiently than wire wound designs. This allows faster warm-ups and quicker response; and since the elements run cooler, longer life as well. They also operate safely at much higher wattage's than wire wound units. Evenly spaced heating elements do not always provide uniform temperatures across a given area, so the elements can be patterned to provide greater he...
