Heater Bands

[batthina]

I am trying to find a Heater Band for a pressure vessel that can go up to >700F. I wanted to know if there is any kind of a band that is temperature controllable. Can I maintain 700F for a few hrs?

Thanks!

Watlow and Omega both make band heaters that can exceed 700F:

You do not address what it is you trying to achieve. Be very careful heating a vessel shell as it will affect (reduce) the vessels ultimate pressure limit. If you exceed the design criteria you can have a catistrofic failure of the shell and injuries can be sigificant.
Good Luck
