Reasons to buy from us

Some key features of Simatec heating tools include:

  1. User-Friendly Operation Panel: Equipped with an ultra-compact, highly sensitive temperature sensor, the heater indicates precise, real-time temperatures through a digital display. The heater starts or stops at the flick of a button, and the timer can be set for a maximum of 100 minutes

  2. Safety Features: The heater automatically stops promptly if heat is applied without setting the temperature sensor or in the event of a device failure. This ensures a superior level of safety during operation

  3. Versatility: By selecting an I-type core that matches the bore of a bearing, one bearing heater can be used for bearings of various sizes. The heater can heat both sealed and open type bearings

  4. Automatic Heating Under Optimal Conditions: The heater automatically detects changes in electrical properties depending on the type of bearing and I-type core used, ensuring optimal heat application. The output is adjustable from 50% to 100% in increments of 10%, making it ideal for delicate bearings that require gradual heating

  5. Compact and Light: Most Simatec bearing heaters are light enough to be carried easily and used anywhere. They feature automatic temperature control, demagnetising, and a convenient rest to support the bearing
