How To Select The Material For Air Heating Elements?

Dry burning electric heating tube is special, the material is not fixed, it is based on the heated temperature to determine what material of electric heating elements to use. In order to ensure the service life, the corresponding temperature control must be carried out.

  1. Air dry burning, hot air circulation and drying process:

It is applied to industrial electric auxiliary heating, environmental protection equipment, pipeline electric heater, drying room, paint baking room, drying oven, dryer / box and other working conditions equipment, and also commonly used for heating and drying of various materials (such as wood, paper, printing and dyeing, paint, various particles and other materials).

Select The Material Based On The Ambient Temperature
Ambient Temperature Material Recommended Temperature resistance of pipe surface
0-350℃ S.S 304 550℃
350-450℃ S.S 304 600℃
450-650℃ S.S 310S 800℃
650-900℃ Incoloy 1000℃
Ambient temperature is air temperature or the rounded environment temperature of the heating elements, it is less 100-200℃ than the heater elements working temperature.

2. Heating of metal objects

Commonly used in extrusion, injection mold, casting mold, stamping mold, packaging, sealing machine and other metal heating.

When used for mold heating, due to the different mold material, size and heat transfer performance, the heating speed and surface temperature of the mold electric heating rod and the mold workpiece are different, and the temperature transfer also has a certain time difference.

According to the temperature and power of heating inner core, it can meet the comprehensive selection

Mold temperature Surface temperature of heating rod Material Recommended
150 300 S.S 304
200 400 S.S 321
450 600 S.S. 310S

3. Working environment of solid hot melt

  • Low melting point metal hot melting: melting tin, aluminum, zinc, lead, etc
  • Non metallic hot melting: the melting of paraffin, nitre and other salts.
Metal Melting Point Material Recommended Working Temperature
Tin 231.89 Titanium 400-500
Lead 327.46 S.S 316L, S.S.321, S.S 310S 400-600
Zinc 419.53 S.S.321, S.S 310S 500-600
Aluminum 660 Incoloy800 700-800
