Kapton Flexible Heaters:

Precision Heating in Ultra Thin Form

Kapton flexible heaters, also known as polyimide film heaters, are advanced thermal solutions engineered for precision, reliability, and flexibility. Made from a thin, lightweight polyimide film (commonly branded as Kapton by DuPont), these heaters offer excellent resistance to chemicals, radiation, and extreme temperatures—ranging from -269°C to +260°C. Thanks to their exceptional thermal stability and compact design, Kapton heaters are widely used in industries requiring tight thermal control within limited space.

Common applications include aerospace, medical devices, electronics, battery warming systems, and 3D printing platforms. Their ultra-thin profile allows them to conform to complex surfaces, making them ideal for use in curved or irregular geometries where traditional heaters cannot operate efficiently. These heaters consist of an etched foil heating element laminated between layers of Kapton insulation. This design ensures uniform heat distribution, fast response times, and precise temperature control. The ability to integrate sensors, thermostats, or thermocouples further enhances their performance and safety. In environments where traditional heating methods fail due to size, weight, or environmental constraints, Kapton flexible heaters provide a proven, dependable solution. Their ruggedness, efficiency, and customization capabilities make them a top choice for engineers and designers working in mission-critical systems. Whether you need to de-ice aircraft sensors, warm diagnostic instruments, or maintain battery temperature in extreme climates, Kapton heaters deliver the performance you can trust precisely where and when you need it.
