Silicon Carbide Heating Elements
The MHI Silicon carbide heating element is time-tested. It offers the only patented No-Age conditioning, which stabilizes heating-element resistance during use.
MHI SiC (Silicon Carbide) is characterized by high operating temperature, superior oxidation resistance, low corrosion, long service life, low creep, and easy installation, including complete accessories. Typical material properties (nominal) are specific gravity: 3.0 – 3.1g/cm3, specific heat: 0.7 * 0.1.4KJ/Kg, emissivity: ~0.80, tensile strength: ~15 * 106 N/m2, and the expansion coefficient is 4.8 * 10-6. The MHI silicon carbide heating elements are available in eight basic configurations. The elements extend heater life, especially in corrosive environments.

Silicon Carbide elements tend to age; however, all MHI Silicon Carbide Heaters are conditioned with the MHI patented and patent-pending NoAgeTM treatment, which provides excellent stability during use. Why choose MHI Silicon Carbide?

Resistance varies in a highly non-linear manner with temperature for all SiC elements, and the industry standard is to report this number at ~800C to 1000C. Typical dimensional tolerance is 2-3%. If there is a critical not-to-exceed dimension, please alert us during the ordering process.
