Manufacturing and Orders
Do you manufacture single pieces?
Yes, we manufacture from a single piece. ELEKTRON-ETTO specializes in custom manufacturing, so we can produce individual heating elements precisely to your requirements.
Is the power output per meter of heating rod fixed?
No, the power output is not fixed. The power of a tubular heating element is determined individually based on the conditions of use — it depends on the heated substance, environment, dimensions, and required temperature. Heating elements are made to order, and you can either choose the power yourself or we can design it for you.
