Unit Conversion is a good skill whether you’re solving a problem or just need to compare numbers of two different measurement systems.

Tutco is now one of the largest and most diverse electric heater companies in the world, but it started with humble beginnings.

Ultima band and strip heaters deliver a robust selection of band and strip heater options to meet the need of a variety of applications.

Why select from different insulating materials? The two main factors are temperature rating and water resistance.

A diode in series with the heating element will reduce the applied energy to the heater for a given voltage and allow a larger lower resistance heating element to be used.

Thermal Expansion is the propensity of solid matter to increase its volume when heated. This change in volume occurs in all directions of an object in length, width, and height.

There are many unusual, mostly unknown, and sometimes silly units of measure that exist. Some are used in specific fields of interest, and some are obsolete or too foolish to be taken seriously.
