Expansion Strip for 55 Gallon Drum Heater (FGDHSTRIP)
The BriskHeat 55-gallon drum insulated expansion strip (FGDHstrip) is designed to expand the outer diameter of full-coverage drum heaters and insulators, allowing them to wrap securely around oversized drums measuring up to 24.2 in (615 mm) in diameter. These high-efficiency thermal strips are essential for ensuring a proper, snug fit on specialty 55-gallon drums equipped with prominent removable lids, heavy closing rings, or external bolt-ring closures.
- Optimized Dimensional Width: Features a 6 in (152 mm) wide insulated expansion profile that seamlessly integrates into standard full-coverage cloth heating jackets.
- Maintains Thermal Integrity: fully insulated construction prevents localized radiant heat loss at the closure seam, ensuring uniform temperature distribution across the entire drum surface.
-
Secure Equipment Adaptability: Eliminates the need for custom-sized heaters by adapting standard heating blankets to fit variable drum physical tolerances and bulkier locking hardware.
