Description:

Split Sheath Cartridge Heaters are tubular heaters that have been formed in to a half circle which is then folded in the middle with the two halves now making a circle.

When heat is applied, the two domed arms of the cartridge heater move outwards to the surrounding holes walls to create a very close fit. This maximizes surface area contact along its length greatly improving the heat transfer, while also prolonging the life of the heater as it prevents overheating sections forming hot spots due to air gaps may occur.

When the cartridge cools the arms retract to their original diameter, reducing the fitting tolerances for easier removal. This saves time and money reducing your overall maintenance budget, including interruption to production and repair of the bore etc.
