The Kapton®heater kit contains thin
and flexible heaters with adhesive
backing to conform to practically
any flat or curved surface. With
15 different shapes, this kit can suit
almost any application. Heater
configurations are outlined on a
0.3 x 0.3 m (1x1') sheet, with line
markings for easy selection and
cutout. When used in combination,
these heaters can provide a number
of resistance and wattages. Leads
can be soldered on or connected
with alligator clips.

Lead wire connection note:
1. Strip the wire leads about 1⁄4".
2. Scrub the lead area on the kit
with a fiberglass brush (looks
like a pencil).
3. Flatten or “crush” the metal
strands where the leads are
stripped.
4. Tin the flattened strands
of the leads with high
temperature solder (97.5%
lead, 1.5% silver, 1% tin) with
about 288°C (550°F) solder tip.
5. Apply a small amount of flux
on the lead area that was
scrubbed with the fiberglass
brush and solder.
Both models
shown smaller
