Tubular Heating Elements
Tubular Heating Elements
Arihant Heaters is a Leading Tubular Heating Elements Manufacturers in India, Highly versatile and economical, electric tubular heating elements are applied in virtually every conceivable type of heating application. These robust tubular heaters are a reliable thermal source used to heat a multitude of liquids, gases, and solids and can be applied straight or formed into complex formations.
Tubular heaters are also used for radiant heating in open air or vacuum atmospheres. The heating elements can be cast into or clamped onto metal to form heated parts. We offer a wide selection of standard designs, or tubular heating elements can be custom designed for your requirements. Industries’ application and design engineering team are available to assist in specifying the proper electric tubular heater configuration. Arihant Heaters Manufacture, supply and export its tubular heating elements in India as well as other countries.

Straight Heating Elements
Standard tubular heating elements for any application. Tubular heating elements are a versatile and economical heat source for a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications. Standard diameters are 0.260″, 0.315″, 0.375″, 0.430″, 0.475″ and 0.496″. Other special sizes are available. Depending on the diameter, lengths can be supplied up to 335″. Standard sheath materials range from copper and steel to stainless steel tubular heaters and Incoloy alloys. Special sheath materials may be available based on diameter and size of the element required. Standard terminations include a threaded stud, threaded bulkhead, screw lug, quick disconnect spade, ceramic-to-metal hermetic, moulded rubber lead, conventional lead wire terminal assembly and more. Flexible lead wire extensions or other mounting options are available for specific applications.
Formed Heating Elements
Custom heating elements can be provided to any length, formed into virtually any configuration and sheathed in a variety of different materials to suit your application. Likewise, the connection/termination possibilities are limited only by your imagination and the availability of components. Standard terminations include a threaded stud, threaded bulkhead, screw lug, quick disconnect spade, ceramic-to-metal hermetic, moulded rubber lead, conventional lead wire terminal assembly and more. We frequently fabricate custom tubular heaters in conjunction with an OEM’s design staff, both for prototype and production.
Considerations when Selecting Tubular Heaters
When choosing which tubular heating element is right for your application, there are several factors one should consider before making a decision. Factors include:
- Electrical termination type
- Temperature control
- Voltage and wattage rating
- Installation and mounting requirements (brackets, fittings, etc.)
- Forming and bending requirements
- Operating temperature
- Corrosive environment and effects on the heater
