55 Gallon Drum and Barrel Heaters

Powerblanket’s 55-gallon drum heaters provide a range of heating solutions for warming and storing temperature-sensitive materials. Our patented design eliminates hot and cold spots by applying uniform full-coverage heat across the entire surface of the container, allowing users to keep their materials at the proper viscosity while remaining at specified thermal levels. Each drum heater can be equipped with either an adjustable or a fixed thermostat. Our 55-gallon drum heater comes in two voltages: 120 volts and 240 volts.
