Cartridge Heater Temperature Profile Graph

The Watt-Flex® cartridge heater features a continuous coil design that ensures a uniform temperature profile along its length, unless specified otherwise by the customer. In contrast, the Watlow Firerod® cartridge heater exhibits cold spots and an uneven temperature distribution due to its sectional design. This comparison highlights the advantages of the Watt-Flex® heater in maintaining consistent heating performance.
