Flexible heater substrates provide heater manufacturers with versatility, allowing them to design innovative solutions to deliver controlled heat across irregular or complex surfaces. Their key advantage lies in their ability to conform to various shapes, sizes, and substrates, making them ideal for applications where traditional rigid heaters would be ineffective.
ARLON flexible heater substrates are made of thin, flexible silicone rubber and fiberglass fabric composite materials. These substrates are UL rated, thermally stable, highly conformable and customizable. ARLON flexible heater substrates have earned their reputation for reliable operation and long life in both wire bound and etched foil heater applications.
Flexible heaters are used in a wide range of industries due to their adaptability and performance. In the semiconductor, aerospace, automotive, medical, food and beverage, electronics sectors, and many other areas, these heaters help maintain optimal operational temperatures for sensitive equipment and ensure efficient system performance.
The ARLON®raPId™ polyimide flexible heater substrates are comprised of a revolutionary new construction that incorporates the benefits of polyimide heater dielectrics with the flexibility and usability of a silicone adhesive system. It is ideal for use in polyimide flexible heaters, analytical test equipment with chemical-resistant heaters, outdoor electronics requiring cold weather operation, aerospace and medical equipment applications.
