- 28 W/sq in watt density balances power and element life
- 304 stainless steel sheath resists corrosion in harsh environments
- UL Recognised component simplifies regulatory compliance
Industrial finned strip heater
The Tempco CSF00129 is a 120 V AC finned strip heater rated at 500 W with a maximum sheath temperature of 1200 °F. It suits process-heating tasks that demand concentrated radiant and convection output in a compact linear form.
304 stainless sheath with surface-mount tabs
The heater sheath is 304 stainless steel and the fins are nickel-plated steel, giving corrosion resistance in industrial atmospheres. Mounting tabs with slotted holes measuring 1/2 in by 5/16 in accept 10-32 screws, allowing secure surface attachment on 9 1/2 in centres. Offset terminals keep wiring clear of the mounting plane.
Replaces lower-wattage or non-finned strip units
The 28 W/sq in watt density and finned geometry deliver more heat per unit length than plain strip heaters, so the upgrade is worthwhile when space is limited but thermal output must rise. It is not suited for applications requiring immersed liquid heating or voltages other than 120 V AC.

Questions about this item
What voltage standard does the 120V AC heater use, and what maximum sheath temperature does it cap at?
It operates on 120V AC single-phase power and is rated for a maximum sheath temperature of 1200°F.
What are the mounting dimensions and screw size required to surface-mount the 10 1/2 in strip heater?
The heater needs a 9 1/2 in mounting dimension with 10-32 screws that fit 1/2 in long by 5/16 in wide slotted holes on the mounting tabs.
How is the finned strip heater wired, and which terminal orientation step is often missed?
Connect supply wires to the offset terminals on the 1 1/2 in wide element; the step often missed is matching the offset terminal positions to the enclosure knock-outs before tightening the 10-32 mounting screws.
