Tubular heating elements for railway applications
Tubular heating elements for railway applications are also known as switch points heaters. Usually used on French rails (tramways, LGV...), we can offer different sections and connection types to meet your requirements.
We've also developed a range with a quick connection that allows to change the heating part while keeping the cable, housing and IP68 sealing.
Please consult us for specific requirements.

Our tubular heating elements for railway applications are in stock in standard 5.5 x 13 mm sections, with different power and lengths. We can also manufacture customed elements with non-standard section and power.
Here are a few explanations about our tubular heating elements for railway applications:
- High-quality materials for harsh operating conditions. Our tubular elements can be used at temperature from -50°C to +140°C.
- Totally waterproof connection boxes (IP 68). Fully or partially molded, replaceable cable.
- Equal heat dispersion thanks to high power density.
- Special fixation accessories (clamps, clamping brackets, clips, connection head fasteners, etc.) ensure optimum operation when the rail and heating elements expand.
Tubular elements for railway applications are mainly used to protect switch infrastructures from freezing.
Tubular elements are designed for the railway industry.
However, they can also be custom-formed, and have demonstrated their values in other industries. See our range of custom-formed round, oblong and square tubular heating elements.
