Clarke Hot Wire Strip Heater 500
Clarke Hot Wire Stip Heater 500
A simple ‘no-frills’ strip heater offering an economical solution for bending thermoplastics up to 4mm in thickness. A single wire is used which allows for tight radius folds. The wire has a single heat setting, is guarded and operates at low voltage for safety. Graduated scales on the work table assist accuracy which can be further enhanced by using the optional Folding Jig.

Clarke Hot Wire Strip Heaters 600S/D & 1000S/D
Clarke Hot Wire Stip Heaters 600S/D & 1000S/D
These latest hot wire strip heaters from CR Clarke feature calibrated, adjustable work stops for accuracy, adjustable wire height to suit a range of different materials, and the option of twin heating wires for bending larger radii when needed. Optional contact blades are available for bending thin material and all machines have a clamp beam to prevent bowing. In addition, ‘D’ models have an upper heater beam. This allows thicker and less thermally conductive plastics to be worked with confidence.

N.B. A key resource for plastics working – these capable machines will suit any workshop or design studio and have features to keep fingers away from hot plastic and elements.
