BriskHeat, a leading provider of flexible heating solutions, introduced XtremeFLEX® RKP Heating Tapes with Preset Thermostats. The new ultra-flexible moisture and chemical-resistant heating tapes feature built-in thermostats preset for a wide variety of heating applications.
These heating tapes offer a much more flexible alternative to traditional heat trace cable to heat pipes, elbows, flanges, valves, instrumentation, and vessels for freeze protection, flow/viscosity control, condensation prevention, and process control. They can also be used as a flexible heat source for heated hoses. Potential users include facilities maintenance personnel, process engineers, laboratory personnel, contractors, and plant managers in a wide range of industries.
“BriskHeat’s RKP flexible heating tapes serve as a true plug-and-play heater that is both easy to install and maintain,” said Patrick Doyle, Vice President of Business Development, BriskHeat. “Because of the extreme flexibility and durability, the tapes can be installed on surfaces with complex shapes with a minimum bend radius of 1/4 inch (6 mm).”
BriskHeat’s RKP heating tapes are extruded with moisture and chemical-resistant silicone rubber that is safe to use in outdoor and wet-area wash-down locations. Standard lengths are available up to 200 feet. Standard preset thermostats are either 70 degrees Fahrenheit or 120 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius or 49 degrees Celsius), with a variety of other temperatures available upon request. The heating tapes can also be customized for a variety of applications.
