Silicon Carbide Heating Elements – Maltec-H Type U3

Features

  • Withstands as high as 1600 (surface temperature)
  • Generates high heat output per unit surface area, approximately 5-10 times the output of Nichrome wire.
  • High strength and excellent shock resistance.
  • Chemically very stable.
  • Heat source is free of noise and air pollution.
  • Various coating products are available for protection against water vapor and harmful gas atmosphere.
  • Easy to handle.
  • Standard: IEC 60675
Enquiry

This was designed by modifying and integrating the tip of the type U heating element to generate the heat uniformly and enable the input of greater electric power, resolving the temperature decrease at the tip area by doing so. While there is a limit in dimension for manufacturing reasons, the electric specifications are the same as type U. You are recommended to use it in a vertical position, as the tip portion is heated.
