Electric Heaters for the Plastics Industry

Precision heating solutions for extrusion, injection molding, blow molding, and thermoforming applications.

Total Heat Solutions supplies the full range of electric heaters used in plastics processing — from standard cartridge and band heaters to fully custom designs. The right heater depends on your equipment, process temperature, and wattage needs. Call us and we'll help you spec it correctly the first time.

Cartridge Heaters

Cylindrical heaters that insert into drilled holes in platens, dies, and tooling. Known for high watt density and even heat distribution. Available with internal thermocouples or split-sheath construction for easy removal.

Mica Band Heaters

Flexible band heaters that wrap around cylindrical surfaces. Higher watt density and faster heat-up than ceramic, with a thinner profile. A cost-effective choice for most standard barrel and nozzle heating.

Ceramic Band Heaters

Built with ceramic insulator blocks that retain and radiate heat efficiently, reducing energy loss. Operate at higher temperatures than mica and deliver better efficiency on long-running processes.

Strip Heaters

Flat, rectangular heaters that bolt or clamp onto flat surfaces. Mica-insulated construction with terminal posts for straightforward wiring.

Custom Heaters

When an off-the-shelf heater won't fit, we build one that will. Engineered to order from your drawings, samples, or specs — for unusual geometries, non-standard voltages, or specialty materials.

Immersion Heaters

Direct-immersion heaters for liquids, oils, and process fluids. Available in screw-plug and flanged configurations with sheath materials matched to the medium being heated.
