Ruggedly constructed .315 diameter heating elements are the heat source for Maxistrip heaters, providing excellent life. Specially designed aluminum track houses the tubular heating element, providing an excellent heat sink for rapid heat transfer and good temperature uniformity. The surface contact on Maxistrip heaters is smooth and flat, which is essential for good heat conduction.
Maxistrip Heaters rugged construction characteristics are specially designed and engineered for efficient heating of flat surfaces. Crown nuts securely fasten the cover plate to the aluminum track, keeping contaminants from coming in direct contact with the tubular heating element. Maximum sheath temperature of the heating element is 650°F (343°C).

MAXISTRIP HEATERS SPECIFICATIONS
CONSTRUCTION STYLES
Maxistrip Heater with Mounting Holes
Mounting holes can be provided down the center or located along the phantom lines between the holes shown on the drawings in "Learn More".
Standard Hole Diameter: 5/16" Maximum Hole Diameter: 1/2" (center of width only)
Maxistrip Special Width
By combining one or more standard width (1-1/2", 2-1/2", 3" and 4") aluminum strip heater channels, wider surface areas can be developed. If required specify mounting holes when submitting to matrusree
ELECTRICAL TERMINATIONS
Type R1: Single Armor Cable Leads
Armor Cable provides excellent protection against abrasion and contaminants. The cable exits through an adapter that encapsulates the element ends. The adapter and cable are silver soldered on for maximum security and seal protection. 20" of cable and 24" flexible leads are standard.
Type R1A: Galvanized cable Type R1B: Stainless steel cable
Options: Longer leads or cable. Male or female plugs attached to leads.
Type R: Blockhead Terminals
90° Blockhead Terminals with 10-32 threads. Special design can switch between 1800W and 900W at 240V.
Type S: Terminal Lugs
Terminal lugs with 10-32 binding head screws are the standard termination for all Maxistrip heaters.
Type T1: Straight Terminals
Straight outward screw terminals with 8-32 threads.
Type W1: Straight Wire Braid leads
Wire braid provides strength and protection to the lead wire insulation, offering sharp bending not possible with armor cable. 20" of wire braid and 24" flexible leads are standard. Options: Longer leads or braid. Male or female plugs attached to leads.
Type W2: Straight-Up Wire Braid Leads
Wire braid provides strength and protection to the lead wire insulation, offering sharp bending not possible with armor cable. 20" of wire braid and 24" flexible leads are standard. Options: Longer leads or braid. Male or female plugs attached to leads.
