Product Description
Tempco flexible drum heaters are the economical choice for heating liquids in drums. The 3 inch wide silicone rubber heater complete with adjustable thermostat fits 15 gallon steel drums.

When not in use, the heater can be rolled for convenient storage.
Use one heater on the lower third of the drum or attach more heaters to the container to increase wattage and speed up the heating process. The 120 volt model is supplied with 6 foot cord with standard three-pronged plug.
This silicone band heater is 38 inches long and 3 inches wide. Containers with an outer diameter ± 1/2 inch of the 13.5 inch diameter require a custom made heater.

Caution: Allowing liquid in a container to fall below the level of the heater will render the heater ineffective and could irreparably damage the baked on epoxy phenolic lining in lined steel drums.
