TUBULAR HEATING OPTIONS

THREADED FITTINGS

Threaded fittings are furnished with nuts and optional fiber gaskets, washers and lockwashers. Fittings are silver soldered, welded or mechanically pressed (staked) to the sheath. Welding requires sheath and fitting material compatibility. Standard elements may be provided with two fittings, one for each terminal end. Two-pass elements may be provided with only one fitting.

MOUNTING PLATES

MOUNTING PLATES

Mounting plates provide a simple, convenient means of holding elements in place in an airstream and other applications where the element is not immersed in a liquid. Stainless steel plates are mechanically pressed (staked) or tack welded to sheathed elements.
The mounting plates shown to the right are standard configurations for .475” diameter elements. Consult factory for other diameters and configurations.

Terminal #4

Neoprene Insulated Leads

Description:
Standard Bare Copper or Tin Plated Copper Conductors insulated with Neoprene. 90oC Neoprene insulation with thickness of 5/64” or 1/16”.

Use:
Used primarily for internal wiring or wiring of defrost and refrigeration applications up to 600V. See Neoprene and Expoxy filled Terminal #5 for applications that require protection for wet (immersed) refrigeration type applications.
Neoprene exhibits supreme abrasion, cut-through oil, and solvent resistance. Neoprene is also known for its long service life and wide ranges of temperature and usability. It is remarkably flame retardant and self-extinguishing. (Military products often incorporate Neoprene.)

PVC Insulated Leads

Description:
Standard Bare Copper or Tin Plated Copper Conductors insulated with PVC. 105oC PVC insulation with thickness of 1/32”.

Use:
Used primarily for internal wiring of appliances up to 600V or with thickness of 1/16” for internal wiring of refrigeration equipment. See Valox Terminal #5 for applications that require protection for moist refrigeration type applications.
PVC is relatively inexpensive, with the potential to be used in diverse applications. It is flame, moisture, and abrasion resistant. It also holds up against gasoline, ozone, acids, and solvents. PVC should not be used when flexibility and an extended flex life are required at low temperatures.

Silicone Insulated Leads with Glass Braid (SRG)

Description:
Stranded Tin Plated Copper Conductors insulated with Silicone Rubber and Glass Braid. 200oC Silicone Rubber insulation with thickness of 1/32”.

Use:
Used primarily for internal wiring of applicances up to 600V. SRG is the standard suppied insulation material, with the exception of defrost and refrigeration applications.

Type TGGT Leads

Description:
Stranded Nickel-Clad Copper Conductors insulated with PTFE tapes and Glass Braid. 250oC PTFE tapes with thickness of 1/64” covered by wrapped fiberglass yarns and a treated glass braid jacket.

Use:
Used where the leadwire is exposed to high temperatures such as in industrial processing up to 600V.

Mica Insulated Leads with Glass Braid (MGT)

Description:
Stranded Nickel-Clad Copper Conductors insulated with Mica Glass Tapes and Glass Braid. 450oC Glass reinforced Mica tapes with thickness of 1/32” and a treated glass braid jacket.

Use:
Used where the leadwire is exposed to extremely high temperatures up to 600V.
