Turn the dial to control the percentage of time that these heaters cycle on, from 5% to 100%. Commonly used to thaw pipes, prevent valves from freezing, and heat beakers and flasks in labs, they're good for temporary and occasional use where rapid heating is required but precise temperature control is not.

Wrap the flexible fiber heating element around small-diameter pipes and tubes or pack it into tight spaces.

There’s no need for power-connection kits with these finished lengths of cable.

Rated for a maximum heat output of 900° F, these heaters are often used for thawing frozen pipes and rapid spot heating.

Make your own thermocouples.

Extend the reach of your thermocouple probe—plug-in connectors on both ends of this wire speed up installation.

This wire will spring back after bending. It's often used in heating and electrical applications.

Able to withstand temperatures up to 1000° F, 600 nickel is often used as safety lock wire in high-temperature applications. It is comparable to Inconel.

99.5% pure, this platinum wire is used for applications that require a soft material that resists corrosion and oxidation and has a high melting point.

Harder than platinum and able to withstand higher temperatures than gold, this 99.98% pure tantalum wire also resists corrosion and conducts heat. It’s often used in heating elements for furnaces.
