Tempco CSF00008 Finned Strip Heater 120V 12in 1200F
A 12-inch finned strip heater delivering 900 watts at 120 volts with a maximum sheath temperature of 1200 degrees Fahrenheit
- 1200 °F max sheath temperature for high-heat processes
- 900 W output at 120 V AC single phase
- 34 W/sq in watt density for efficient heat transfer
- 304 stainless steel sheath resists corrosion
- UL Recognised component for code compliance
Industrial Finned Strip Heater
The Tempco CSF00008 is a surface-mount finned strip heater designed for industrial process heating. It operates on 120V AC single-phase power and delivers 900 W across a 12 in overall length. The sheath uses 304 stainless steel with nickel-plated steel fins and includes mounting tabs with slotted holes for secure installation.
Suited For Fixed Surface Heating
This unit suits applications needing consistent radiant or conduction heat up to a maximum sheath temperature of 1,200 Degrees F. The 34 W/sq in watt density supports steady thermal output across the 1 1/2 in element width. Buyers who need liquid immersion, tubular elements, or three-phase power should look at different heater types.
Sustained Load Thermal Behavior
Under continuous operation the 304 stainless sheath maintains structural integrity at the rated 1,200 Degrees F limit. The finned geometry across the 1 3/8 x 2 in profile promotes steady heat dissipation into the surrounding air or mounted surface. UL Recognized construction supports reliable long-duration cycling in fixed industrial environments.

Questions about this item
What voltage supply and mounting hardware are required for the 120 V 900 W finned strip heater?
The heater runs on 120 V AC single-phase and mounts with 10-32 screws through 1/2 in by 5/16 in slotted holes on the included mounting tabs.
Will the 34 W/sq in watt density and 1 3/8 in by 2 in fin profile fit the same 11 in mounting centres as my existing strip heater?
Yes, the overall length is 12 in with an 11 in mounting dimension, and the finned sheath measures 1 3/8 in high by 2 in wide across the fins.
How can I confirm the 304 stainless steel sheath is operating within its 1200 °F limit after installation?
Measure the sheath surface temperature with a calibrated contact probe or infrared pyrometer; it must remain at or below 1200 °F during steady-state operation.
