Ceramic Band Heater

Ceramic band heating elements are designed for high-temperature barrel heating in plastic injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding systems. Made with nickel-chromium resistance wire embedded in high-purity ceramic insulation, they provide fast heat transfer, uniform temperature distribution, and reliable operation at temperatures up to 800°C. Compared with conventional mica heaters, ceramic construction can reduce heat loss and improve thermal efficiency in continuous industrial production.

EaseWise supplies custom ceramic band heaters with diameters of 25–300 mm, widths of 25–300 mm, power ratings from 30W to 6KW, and voltages of 110V, 220V, and 380V. Standard replacement and OEM configurations are available with customized dimensions, wattage, terminals, and lead wires to match different machine and barrel requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ceramic band heaters are mainly used for cylindrical barrel heating in plastic injection molding machines, extruders, blow molding machines, and other industrial processing equipment requiring high-temperature operation.

Our ceramic band heaters can operate continuously at up to 800°C, depending on watt density, installation, and application conditions. This makes them suitable for applications where mica band heaters cannot provide sufficient thermal performance.

Ceramic band heaters use ceramic fiber insulation and can operate at much higher temperatures (up to 800°C vs. typically lower for mica). They also offer better energy efficiency, longer service life, and more uniform heat distribution in demanding continuous production environments.

Yes. We customize inner diameter, width, voltage, wattage, lead wire configuration, mounting holes, terminals, and thermocouple openings. Send your machine specifications or existing heater sample for a quote.

Yes. Our ceramic band heaters can be supplied with an optional insulation jacket that reduces surface heat loss by 20–30%, lowering energy costs and workshop ambient temperatures.
