Vulcan OSF1515-1250A finned strip heater 120V 1250W 15 1/4 in
120 V finned strip heater delivers 1250 W across a 15 1/4 in stainless steel sheath with 32 W/sq in density and UL recognition
- 120 V operation suits standard mains supply
- 1250 W output delivers strong heating power
- 32 W/sq in density enables rapid heat transfer
- Stainless steel sheath resists corrosion at 1200 °F
- Slotted mounting tabs simplify surface installation
Application fit
This finned strip heater is built for industrial processes that require focused surface heat, such as sealing bars, packaging equipment, platens and small ovens. The 1250 W output at 120 V AC and a watt density of 32 W/sq in suit tasks needing rapid, even temperature rise across a 15 1/4 in length. It is not intended for comfort heating, residential HVAC or any application that demands a lower sheath temperature than 1 200 °F. Buyers needing a different voltage, a longer heated length or a lower watt density should select another model.
Deciding spec
The critical figure is the 1250 W rating at 120 V AC combined with the 15 1/4 in overall length and offset terminals; together they determine whether the heater fits the machine’s mounting pattern and power supply. Verify the 14 1/4 in mounting centres, the 10-32 screw size and the 1/2 in by 5/16 in slotted holes against your fixture before ordering.

Questions about this item
How often should the stainless steel sheath and nickel plated steel fins be inspected for wear?
Inspect the sheath and fins annually or after extended runs at the maximum 1200 degrees Fahrenheit sheath temperature to catch oxidation or fin damage early.
What is the first limit reached when running the heater continuously at full 1250 watt output?
The maximum sheath temperature of 1200 degrees Fahrenheit is the primary thermal limit that will be reached under sustained full power operation.
How hot does the 15 1/4 inch finned strip heater get during all day operation?
The sheath can reach up to 1200 degrees Fahrenheit while the 32 watts per square inch watt density produces significant heat across the 1 1/2 inch wide element surface.
