The single ended connection types allow even greater flexibility in furnace design. Silicon carbide heating elements are rigid throughout the range of operating temperatures so they can be installed horizontally or vertically without any additional supports. They handle a wide range of products and atmospheres efficiently, and temperatures can be controlled as closely as you like. Silicon Carbide equipped furnaces are versatile.
There are no fuel storage problems, no worries about fuel availability and no noxious exhaust products to be ducted away. Electric furnace heating with silicon carbide elements is economical, dependable, clean, quiet and safe. When element temperatures up to 1625☌ (2927☏) are required, Silicon carbide (SiC) heating elements are a desirable option with an impressive peak power density of 50 watts per square inch.
