Square Section Heaters
We have a various range of square section heaters that are available to buy online, here at Elmatic LTD. These square section heaters suit the following applications: injection / blow moulding, rubber moulding, mould & tool dies, manifolds, plastic process machinery, packaging machinery, test equipment and many more.
Our square section heaters are single ended, they have been developed to meet the growing demands for a completely sealed heater, able to operate at the ever increasing temperatures required by today’s modern machines. Its square section tubular construction, combines flexibility in design with ruggedness and durability in operation, giving it many advantages over the standard mica and ceramic heaters. The square section heaters advantage over the conventional round tubular heating element, is that there is more surface contact giving you a better heat transfer. The construction enables Elmatic to offer a high watts density, making our square section heaters capable of operating at temperatures up to 750°C.

Precision Wound Resistance Wire
Nickel Chromium coiled resistor (computer designed). Precisely wound to provide exact heat requirement. Each individual spiral being thoroughly chemically washed to eliminate contamination and give a longer element life.
Welded Connection
The connection between terminal pin and resistor is securely made by electronic welding or crimping.
Electrical Insulation
The resistor coil is centrally located during manufacture and insulated with high purity Magnesium oxide powder. When compacted by rolling or swaging, the magnesium oxide powder provides excellent thermal conductivity and dielectric strength.
Sheath Material
A selection of sheath material is available depending on individual customer’s requirements and applications. (Please see chart for options). All heaters are fully annealed to allow forming.
Sealing
All heaters are sealed during manufacture to protect against moisture absorption during storage. This will not however serve to protect against liquid infiltration and chemical attack. Various sealants are available for special conditions. Please consult factory for further assistance if you require any special needs.
Insulation and Threaded Terminals
Ceramic insulators ensure the electrical insulation of the terminal stud from the sheath. The standard threaded stud provides a quick and easy termination. However, a large selection of termination options is available.
