Grade SPN Spinel crushable insulators

INTRODUCING –  Crushable Spinel cores Spinel is the mineral name associated with an equimolar composition of  MgO and Al2O3, resulting in a formula of MgAl2O4.  The name is associated with many derivative and substitution compounds and defines a major...

Standard grade MgO Cold Cores

INTRO: MgO cold cores are used to facilitate and customize the design characteristics of high watt density cartridge heaters. A cartridge heater design may be engineered to deliver power at a very narrow part of the overall heater, and the Cold core is used to...

Grade CTM MgO cores for Tubular or Cable heaters

USES:  MgO cores of this type are intended for bulk applications requiring only a tubular geometry with a heating element in the center.  The vast majority of commercial needs are met by powder filling applications, but special engineering requirements might make a...

Hard fired Insulators

INTRO:  Hard fired ceramic insulators are used to make rigid thermocouples for high temperature service.   The insulator should have good mechanical properties and is commonly used without a sheath or external protection tube.  It also needs good thermal shock...

Standard grade MgO Spacers

INTRO: MgO spacers are used to facilitate the assembly of a cartridge heater. They serve dual roles of positioning the wind core into the center of the tubular metal sheath, and allowing the passage of MgO grain to be compacted into the annulus of the heater for...

Thermocouple & MI Cable

INTRO: A Mineral Insulated Metal Sheathed (MIMS) Cable is a metallic cable with ceramic powder insulation packed tightly around the inner wires. Insulators for use in Mineral Insulated Cable production go by many names including crushable insulators, swageable...

MIMS Insulator

Intro: (MIMS is the accepted acronym for Mineral Insulated Metal Sheathed as used to describe finished cable, formerly known as simply MI Cable with the sheath material assumed) USES: Crushable insulators are used to produce Mineral Insulated Metal Sheathed (MIMS)...

Crushable Insulator

USES: Crushable insulators are used to produce Mineral Insulated Metal Sheathed (MIMS) cable (in long lengths) or probes (typically shorter complete units).  The conductor wires may be thermocouple pairs, resistance wire for heating, RTD conductors, or simply...
