* Temps are RISE ABOVE AMBIENT after 12 hrs, on a Cherokee 235 with Lyc 0-540. Aircraft was in a unheated hanger, the air inlets were plugged with foam rubber cowl plugs, the cowling was covered with a blanket which laid over the top and hung about halfway down the sides, and the sump had 9 qts of oil. The temperatures were obtained by a calibrated digital thermometer with a remote probe inserted between the top two fins on the center left cylinder, and a second probe dropped down the oil filler tube with the tip suspended at the 4.5 qt level.

* Band heaters MAY not fit the cylinders on Continental A-65 through 0-200 and 0-300 if there are PAL nuts (lock nuts) on the cylinder studs.   The bands will fit these cylinders if there are no lock nuts. The band heater is 3/8″ wide.  Please check to see if it will fit your cylinders BEFORE ordering, to avoid a 20% return charge.

** On the Continental 550 the harness can be installed under the induction, offset to one side, or over the top. If you prefer to install it offset order Qty 3 P/N EXT6. If you prefer to install it over the top order Qty 6 P/N EXT6. This part is a 6″ harness extension.

Continental A-65, A-75, A-80, C-85, C-90, O-200 except O-200D, IO-240: because the aluminum HotStrip element must bond to a flat surface, the oval oil sumps on these engines are heated with 3/8″ x 12″ 50w flexible silicone elements (two if sump heater system or XP System, one if Standard System).  See here for more info.

Band heaters will not fit the cylinders on Franklin engines, Rotax 912/914/915, and Jabiru Gen 4.

All systems supplied with molded NEMA 5-15 type AC plug, if an adapter is needed you must provide that. .

Note 120v systems can be used with a 220v power source by using a small inexpensive transformer like this one.

WE DO NOT ADD SALES TAX as it is not required.
