Drum Heater for 50/60L Drums

The Drum Heater for 50/60L Drums (also called a barrel warmer or heating jacket for drums) is the most reliable method for safely heating and storing temperature-sensitive materials in steel or HDPE plastic drums.

The 50/60L Drum Heater eliminates unnecessary waste, lowers costs from materials damaged by improper storage and provides safe, fast and uniform heating across the entire drum surface.

The Drum Heater for 50/60L Drums can melt and reduce the viscosity of soaps, fats, waxes, varnishes and oil-based solutions quickly and reliably — using less energy than traditional steam or radiant heaters.

The high-quality and lightweight design makes it easy to fit the 50/60L Drum Heater on any standard steel or HDPE plastic drum (compatible up to 40°C for plastic drums). The Drum Heater for 50/60L Drums weighs just 7 kg and measures 1330 × 460 mm, making transport and mobile heating straightforward thanks to its compact dimensions, manoeuvrability and user-friendly setup.
