Thermal-Flex Spiral Fluted Rail Heaters offer a solution to troublesome installations where switch components are not configured for rigid rail heater designs. This is often the case with older switch installations that do not have a provision in the bracing to accept a rigid rail heater.
Our spiral fluted rail heaters provide 115 W/ft. of power at the point of switch. The flexible design gives track personnel the ability to quickly install a switch heating system without having to remove rail bracing or needing to drill the rail for mounting hardware.
Coupled with Thermal-Flex high density, thermally insulated aluminum channel, the lower wattage rail heaters operate at maximum efficiency as heat is driven into the rail and not lost to the environment. This highly efficient insulated design results in significant savings on power and installation expenses.
