The Caloritech™ BC Band Heater is an aluminized steel strip heater formed to a semicircle. A spring at the terminal end keeps the heater halves in contact with the barrel and compensates for thermal expansion. The other end is fastened by a captive chrome plated allen screw for ease of installation. These heaters are typically used to heat the barrels of plastic injection and extrusion machines, kettles, pipes and other cylinders.
