Precision Flexible Heater Design and Manufacturing
Epec Engineered Technologies brings deep design and application engineering expertise to the development and manufacture of precision-grade flexible heaters. Our flexible heaters are highly customized to meet exact application requirements. They are thin, bendable, and capable of conforming to complex shapes, tight geometries, and curved surfaces across a wide range of industries.
Flexible heaters offer excellent heat transfer and can be bonded directly to the area requiring heat, delivering fast thermal response, uniform heat distribution, and high watt densities without compromising efficiency or reliability. At Epec, we remove the perceived complexity from heater design and help customers focus on performance, not process.

Design, Validation, and Manufacturing - All Under One Roof
No two heater applications are the same, which is why Epec combines engineering, design, and manufacturing in one organization. We support a broad range of flexible heater technologies, including silicone, polyimide, wire-wound, etched foil, and fully custom constructions, with operating temperature ranges from -80°C to over 200°C. We routinely integrate connectors, temperature sensors, thermistors, thermocouples, thermostats, and even functional PCBs directly into the heater assembly.
Our engineers create all drawings and 3D models in-house, allowing customers to validate form, fit, and function before samples are built. This approach reduces risk, shortens development cycles, and eliminates costly rework.

Low Risk, Fast Path to Production
Epec is built to make flexible heaters accessible early in the design cycle. With low minimum order quantities and a $750 lot charge covering almost any custom flex heater, customers can validate designs without large upfront commitments. For early testing, we leverage our relationship with OMEGA as a stocking distributor, allowing customers to purchase off-the-shelf heaters for under $100 to evaluate performance before moving to a custom production design.
We routinely quote and reverse-engineer flexible heaters from incomplete data, physical samples, or legacy parts, enabling programs to move forward even when documentation is limited. Quotes are typically returned within one to two days, and custom flexible heater samples are delivered in three to five weeks.
Materials, Compliance, and Supply Chain Advantage
Epec uses name-brand 3M pressure-sensitive adhesives as standard, providing proven reliability and long-term confidence. We can also source and apply specialized 3M adhesives for high-temperature, low-outgassing, and demanding environmental requirements.
Where compliance is required, we can deliver customized UL Recognized heaters in weeks, eliminating months of lead time and thousands of dollars in third-party NRTL testing. In addition, our established Asia cable manufacturing relationships allow us to source specialty wire and materials that many flex heater suppliers cannot access.
The result is a flexible heater partner that simplifies the technology, reduces risk, accelerates timelines, and delivers production-ready solutions faster.
