These energy efficient horizontal rod ovens are housed in durable stainless steel. The high R value ceramic insulation holds heat longer, extending field use. Placement of the heating element below the rods creates even heat distribution, increasing energy efficiency. Gasket sealed lid ensures an air tight seal to keep moisture out and heat in. Hinged cover allows for single handed retrieval of welding rods without glove removal. Replacement of heating element is quick and easy by removing six accessible screws.
