Thermal-Flex MultiTrace TPE heat trace cable is a low temperature constant wattage heating cable. The cable is manufactured with a PVC or TPE insulation to keep costs low. The constant wattage heating cable design provides uniform heat as the wattage remains the same regardless of circuit length. The cable heating zones are hand soldered and inspected to maintain 100% contact with the buss wires. The parallel resistance cable can be cut and terminated on site eliminating the need for inventories of different size heaters.
