Available in 6.5mm, 8.0mm and 8.5mm diameter sizes. The Hotflex eliminates costly downtime associated with waiting for a custom bent tubular heater. Same day shipping in straight lengths, simply installed, easily stored and improved thermal performance compared to traditional tubular heaters—the Hotflex tubular heater is your best choice for immediate, durable high performance replacement heaters. OEMs who standardize on Hotflex heaters have found they can reduce lead time for manifolds and plates requiring bent tubular heaters
Hotflex’s unique construction consisting of a small high watt density tubular heater surrounded by copper with a flexible armor case results in an easy to install, flexible, durable heat source. Installation can not be easier, simply start in the middle of your mold channel, forming first at the marked center location of the Hotflex heater, then tap in with a Teflon or rubber mallet working your way to each ends.
