Eliminate uneven heating: Unlike conventional cartridge heater designs, Watt-Flex® split-sheath cartridge heaters use a unique continuous heating coil that allows for a more uniform temperature profile. A continuous coil eliminates cool spots and segment burn outs that can cause costly production downtime and machine maintenance.

Uniform temperature profile: Uniform sheath temperature is vital when molding heat-sensitive plastics where the temperature window between gate freeze-off and material degradation is very narrow. Test results highlight the superior temperature profile along the length of a torpedo probe heated by a Watt-Flex heater. By varying the watt-density, Watt-Flex heaters can also be configured for customized temperature profiles with varying zones of heat along the heater.
