Silicone Band Heater for 55-Gallon Drums (120V, 1200W, Adjustable Thermostat)

55-Gallon Silicone Drum Heater Band (120V, 1200W)

This 55-gallon drum heater is a durable, insulated silicone band designed to warm and maintain the temperature of materials stored in standard 55-gallon metal or plastic drums. With 1200 watts of heating power and an adjustable thermostat, it’s ideal for maintaining viscosity, preventing freezing, and preparing temperature-sensitive contents for use in industrial or workshop environments.

Product Features

• Universal Fit: Fits most standard 55-gallon (208L) metal or plastic drums with a 10″ x 68.5″ flexible band design.
• Adjustable Temperature Control: Thermostat adjusts from 86°F to 302°F (30°C to 150°C). For plastic drums, it is recommended to keep temperatures below 100°F (37°C).
• Durable Silicone Construction: Made with high-quality, double-layer reinforced silicone rubber for extended durability in industrial environments.
• Grounded Safety: Features a grounded heating element for safe and stable operation.
• Spring Mounting System: Built-in flexible spring stretches up to 3 inches for a snug, secure fit around various drum diameters.
