Kapton®, a polyimide material that has high dielectric strength, allowing for a very thin heater construction. Chromalox uses Kapton® with two types of bonding systems; FEP Teflon® Thermo-flow polymer 392˚F (200˚C), and Acrylic Thermo-flow 250˚F (121˚C). Kapton® heaters have superior dimensional stability, light weight, and flexibility.
Advantages
- Thin, lightweight, low out gassing
