When heating is required around a nozzle or a pipe, a
band heater is the optimal solution for your heating
needs. Our current band products are separated in two
types: Mica Band Heaters and Starflex Band Heaters. Each
type offers different temperature tolerances as well as
flexibility and construction options.
When highly focused heat is required and a very low
profile is imperative, coil heaters are the best
cost-effective option. Coil heaters may be used to
concentrate the heat on specific segments or the coil
may be spread to equalize the temperature across the
object to be heated.
Backer Marathon strip heaters are manufactured to your
custom specifications. Mica Strip heaters offer a low
profile option for applications of up to 1200°F. Ceramic
Strip heaters offer a rugged construction for
application of up to 1200°F. They are direct bolt in
replacements for popular brands.
Backer Marathon flexible heaters provide outstanding
performance in applications up to 450°F under a variety
of operating conditions. Properly applied silicone
rubber heater life routinely exceeds 10 years. Silicone
rubber has a high dielectric strength, is flame
retardant, and non-toxic. Design versatility permits
special heat profiles allowing zones of higher or lower
heat concentration and their flexible construction makes
them easy to install on a variety of surfaces.
Backer Marathon Nozzle Heater Standard Features include;
oxidation resistant metal sheath, protective sleeving
where leads exit the heater, stainless steel clamping
strap with barrel nuts and 6-32 screw, 10" High
temperature leads with our without SS braid covering. 1"
to 3" diameters and 1" to 6" widths are available.
Backer Marathon Nozzle Heaters are also available in low
profile wedgelock construction.
Backer Marathon air heaters feature an open coil of high
temperature resistance wire electrically isolated in a
stainless steel sheath. Because the air being heated
passes directly over the resistance wire, maximum heat
transfer efficiency is achieved. Backer Marathon brand
air heaters are used for heat staking, plastic welding,
laminating, drying, heat sealing, and any other
operation where air needs to be heated up 1000° F.
Backer Marathon is a distributor for HotSet flexible
