Quick Facts: Answers to the Most Important Questions
Our FAQ provides you with a quick overview of how we work, our quality standards, and the services we offer. For any further questions, we’re happy to assist you directly and without any hassle at any time.
There are several ways to contact us with an inquiry: either by email, through the contact form, by phone, or—for mineral-insulated sheathed thermocouples—also through our configurator. We will then review your requirements and get back to you as soon as possible, usually within 36 hours.
Yes. We always provide customized solutions.
We manufacture all of our mineral-insulated sheathed thermocouples and system solutions to precisely meet your requirements, ensuring that you always receive a solution tailored exactly to your application.
We can either custom-assemble our mineral-insulated heating cables for you with cold ends and electrical connections, or supply them by the meter in lengths of 4 meters or more—depending on what you need for your project.
Once we have all the necessary information, we typically deliver your custom-manufactured, mineral-insulated sheathed thermocouples and sheathed heating cables within 7 to 14 days. In particularly urgent cases, we can also arrange for faster delivery times, depending on our capacity.
Projects involving custom system solutions are generally more complex and require close coordination among all parties involved. In addition, despite their greater complexity, these projects are often time-sensitive. We are proud that, thanks to our technical expertise, streamlined processes, and high level of reliability, we have been able to find a functional, cost-effective, and on-time solution for every customer to date.
Yes, of course. Many of our customers come to us without a finished drawing or detailed specifications—and that's not a problem at all.
For sheathed thermocouples: In most cases, a brief description of what is to be measured and under what conditions is sufficient. Based on this, we will prepare the appropriate specifications and a quote. A drawing or sketch is required only for particularly complex requirements or additional components.
For jacket heating elements: Here, too, many inquiries come in without complete documentation. Customers often know what temperature needs to be reached under what conditions—but not exactly which heating element is required to achieve that. We then work out these specifications together through discussion.
For System Solutions: When it comes to complex applications, the starting point varies greatly: It could be, for example, a CAD file, a technical drawing or sketch, a photo, or a text-only description. No matter what information you provide, we’ll use it as a basis to either further develop your customized, specific solution or, if needed, handle the entire engineering process—including the creation of technical drawings.
In short: You don't need to know exactly which model you need when you make your inquiry—you just need to know what you want to achieve. We'll figure out the rest together.
Absolutely. We analyze, reconstruct, and, if possible, optimize existing thermocouples, heating elements, or complete components—even without existing drawings. Our goal is always to provide a tailor-made solution that meets your requirements or, if possible, even improves upon them.
Yes, we manufacture custom products tailored to your requirements and needs , starting with as few as one unit —whether it’s a mineral-insulated sheathed thermocouple, a sheathed heating conductor, or a system solution.
In addition to our in-house manufacturing and in-depth technical consulting, we also offer the following services:
- Helium leak test
- X-ray
- Calibration
- Heating Test
- Thermal images
- CAD Engineering & Design
- Reverse Engineering
Yes, we are certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015. Our quality management system is audited regularly and—something we are particularly proud of—recertified without any nonconformities. This clearly demonstrates what is important to us: For us, quality is not just an empty phrase, but a commitment we put into practice in every process.
Upon request, we also conduct customer audits to give our customers the opportunity to see our operations and processes for themselves. We welcome this transparent exchange and are always happy to support these audits.

Mineral-insulated sheathed heating cables with attached, seamless cold ends
Mineral-insulated sheathed heating cables without cold ends can be used reliably up to about 400 °C. However, if the application requires higher power ratings or process temperatures up to 1000 °C, sheathed heating cables with cold ends are essential. They ensure that the heated area remains clearly defined and that the connection zones are kept cool and safe.
This article presents the two available designs: jacket heating wires with transition sleeves and attached cold ends—ideal when heating and cold zones must be precisely separated—as well as seamless cold ends, in which the resistance change occurs internally and the outer diameter remains completely uniform. The latter offer maximum flexibility, high temperature resistance, and are suitable for applications up to 1000 °C, tight bend radii, or use in a vacuum. In addition to the design, operating principle, and advantages of both variants, you’ll receive an overview of available standard types, technical data, mechanical and thermal limits, as well as guidelines for proper design and installation. This provides you with a solid basis for selecting the right heating solution.

Single- and two-conductor sheathed cables: The foundation for your heating solution.
Mineral-insulated heating cables—single-conductor or twin-conductor? This fundamental decision affects the voltage level, power range, and connection configuration of your heating solution. Single-conductor versions are particularly suitable for higher voltages and power levels, while twin-conductor cables are ideal for low voltage, lower power, and single-sided connections.
Both designs follow the same principle: inner wires embedded in highly compacted magnesium oxide and enclosed in a metal sheath enable efficient, robust, and evenly distributed heat transfer. The choice of stainless steel or Inconel determines the maximum possible operating temperature.
This article explains the construction, operating principles, technical specifications, and typical operating limits. Tables, material guidelines, and calculation formulas will help you select and design the appropriate heating conductor—from determining resistance to calculating heat output.

Mineral-Insulated Sheathed Heating Cables: Technical Guide for Technicians & Engineers.
In demanding industries such as aerospace, semiconductor technology, and high-end mechanical engineering, temperature control is critical to safety—and standard heating elements quickly reach their limits. Mineral-insulated sheathed cables offer precisely the robustness, precision, and temperature resistance that complex processes demand. With operating temperatures up to 1000 °C, tight bend radii, and high mechanical stability, they are among the most reliable heating solutions available to engineers today.
This guide explains the construction of mineral-insulated sheathed cables, the different variants available, and how to select the optimal sheathed heating conductor for your application. From material selection and resistance values to single- and two-conductor types and cold-end technologies—whether with attached or seamless cold ends—you’ll find all the technical fundamentals you need to design heating systems safely and in accordance with your process requirements.
If you need high-temperature-resistant, precise, and application-optimized heating solutions, this guide provides the necessary knowledge and appropriate product specifications to help you make informed decisions for your project.
