Heating Tapes
Hts/Amptek's heating tapes are flexible electric resistance elements designed for wrapping around tubing, vessels, and laboratory hardware. Available in multiple configurations, they feature durable insulation and watt densities ranging from 3.25 to 13 watts/in. These tapes ensure uniform heat distribution for applications in industrial and research settings.
Temperature Controllers
Our temperature controllers integrate with heating systems to maintain precise thermal regulation. Options include single-zone benchtop units, variable transformers, and programmable digital controllers. These systems ensure consistent temperatures for industrial processes, laboratory equipment, and custom heating assemblies.
Custom Heating Jackets
Custom-designed heating jackets provide thermal management for pipes, tanks, and irregularly shaped equipment. Constructed with silicone or fiberglass insulation, they offer high-temperature resistance up to 1400F. These jackets ensure energy efficiency and safety in industrial and scientific applications.
Industrial Heating Solutions
Hts/Amptek delivers industrial heating systems for freeze protection, viscosity control, and thermal expansion. Products include self-regulating trace heating cables, tubular heaters, and custom assemblies. These solutions are engineered for durability in harsh environments and complex geometries.
Laboratory Heating Tapes
Laboratory heating tapes provide modular, wrap-on heat for scientific apparatus. Available in ASR silicone, heavy-insulated, and standard configurations, they operate at temperatures up to 500F. These tapes ensure precise thermal control for research and development applications.
Questions
Do I need to use a thermostat with heating tape?
Yes, temperature control mechanisms are recommended for all heating tapes. We offer thermostats, Triacs, and digital controllers to ensure precise thermal regulation.
Can I cut heat tape to fit my application?
No. Cutting heat tape disrupts its fixed resistance and watt density, rendering it ineffective. Custom sizes are available upon request.
How do I determine the correct heating tape size?
Size depends on mechanical fit, voltage, and temperature requirements. Our experts will help select the optimal configuration for your application.
What industries use HTS/Amptek's heating solutions?
Our products serve aerospace, petrochemical, clean air monitoring, and research laboratories, among others, for applications like pipeline freeze protection and scientific instrumentation.
Can heating tape be left rolled up?
No. Rolled heating tape may malfunction or become hazardous. Ensure full contact with the heat sink during installation.
What temperature ranges do your heating tapes support?
Our heating tapes operate at temperatures from 400°F to 1400°F, depending on insulation materials like silicone, AMOX, or fiberglass.
