Kanthal Heating Element

Heanjia is professional supplier of high-end FeCrAl heating elements and Kanthal heating element substitute. Our new material HJ209 and HJ407 are perfect substitute of Kanthal A1 and Kanthal APM. The electrical heating elements include heating coil, heating rod and corrugated ribbon.  HJ209 Wire has max working temperature of 1400℃, but  price is only $20/KG~$35/KG. HJ407 has max working temperature of 1425℃, but its price is only about $28/KG~$48/KG.

Our Kanthal Heating Element Substitute advantages:

They take refined master alloy as raw material, uses powder metallurgy technology to manufacture alloy ingots, and is manufactured by special cold and hot processing and heat treatment process. The product has the advantages of strong oxidation resistance, good corrosion resistance at high temperature, small creep of electro-thermal components, long service life at high temperature and small change of resistance.

Kanthal heating element substitute applications:

Our Kanthal heating element substitute is suitable for high temperature applications (max1425 °C), high power density, corrosive atmosphere, carbon atmosphere and other working environments.
It can be used in ceramic kilns, high temperature heat treatment furnaces, laboratory furnaces, electronic industrial furnaces and diffusion furnaces.

  1. FeCrAl electrical heating element grades and comparison:
Grade Composition Max Temp Key Features Cost
0Cr23Al5 Fe-23Cr-5Al 1250°C Balanced performance Low
0Cr25Al5 Fe-25Cr-5Al 1300°C Best corrosion resistance Low
0Cr21Al6Nb Fe-21Cr-6Al-Nb 1350°C Chinese standard (Nb stabilized) Low
HJ209 (Kanthal A-1 Substitute) Fe-22Cr-5.8Al 1400°C High oxidation resistance, stable resistivity Moderate
HJ407 (Kanthal APM Substitute) Fe-21Cr-5Al-0.02Ce 1425°C Enhanced creep resistance, long lifespan Moderate
  1. Electrical heating element available sizes (can be customized):

Heating coil: wire diameter: 0.5mm to 8.0mm, coil diameter: 2mm to over 100mm. Length: no limit.

Heating rod: rod diameter 3.5mm to 30mm,  length: 10mm to 3000mm. 

Corugatted Ribbon Heater:

Parameter Typical Standard Range Common/Notes
Strip Width (W) 5 mm to 100 mm Most common: 10 mm, 13 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 50 mm. Width is a primary factor in surface area and wattage.
Strip Thickness (T) 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm Most common: 1.0 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm. Thickness affects durability, resistance, and maximum temperature.
Corrugation Depth (D) 3 mm to 25 mm Typically proportional to width. Common depths: 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm. Deeper corrugation increases surface area and rigidity.
Pitch (P) 5 mm to 30 mm The distance between corrugation peaks. Often standardized with depth (e.g., a 10 mm depth may have a ~15 mm pitch).
Overall Length (L) 150 mm to 3000+ mm Highly customizable. Inventory items often range from 300 mm to 1200 mm. Longer lengths are made by welding sections.
