Band heaters are ring-shaped heating elements that clamp around cylindrical surfaces (like pipes, barrels, or nozzles) to provide uniform, high-temperature heat. They are widely used in industrial, plastic processing, and fluid heating applications.

Plastic & Rubber Processing 

• Injection Molding Machines:Heats the barrel to melt plastic pellets evenly.
• Extruders: Maintains temperature in single/twin-screw extruder barrels.
• Blow Molding & Hot Runner Systems: Ensures consistent material flow.

Industrial Fluid & Gas Heating

• Pipe Heating: Prevents freezing or maintains viscosity in oil, water, or chemical lines.
• Tank & Drum Heating: Used in fuel storage, asphalt tanks, and industrial reactors.
• Process Heating:For food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.

Packaging & Printing Industry

• Sealing Machines: Provides heat for plastic bag sealing.
• Labeling Equipment:Ensures adhesive activation.

Food & Beverage Industry

• Chocolate & Candy Melters: Maintains liquid consistency.
• Beverage Dispensers: Keeps syrups or oils at optimal temperatures.

Specialized Applications

• 3D Printers: Heats the extruder nozzle in industrial-grade printers.
• Semiconductor Manufacturing:Used in wafer processing equipment.

Advantages of Band Heaters

• Uniform Heating: Even heat distribution around cylindrical surfaces.
• High-Temperature Range:Can reach up to 750°C+ (depending on model).
• Easy Installation:Clamps securely with screws or lugs.
• Customizable:Available in different widths, diameters, wattages, and materials (e.g., ceramic, mica, aluminum).
