TIVAR® H.O.T. (Higher Operating Temperature)

When Processing Temperatures Rise, TIVAR® H.O.T. Beats the HEAT

Developed specifically to excel in chemical and thermocycling environments with temperatures ranging up to 275°F, TIVAR® H.O.T.* is fast becoming the material of choice for baking, food processing & packaging, conveyor manufacturing, grain processing and many other major industries.

FDA/USDA-compliant, TIVAR® H.O.T. can be used as wear strips in proofing ovens or food dehydrators; seals for pasturizers, chemical and medical processing equipment; rollers and sprockets in food processing equipment, and grain drag flights - just to mention a few common applications.

TIVAR® H.O.T.

•Extends material wear-life
•Excells in enviornments up to 275°F
•Lasts up to 10 times longer than standard UHMW in higher temperature environments
•Resists abrasion, corrosion, chemicals and moisture
•Meets FDA guidelines 21CFR 178.2010 and 21CFR 177.1520, USDA Compliant
•Exhibits excellent release characteristics
•Choose TIVAR® H.O.T. - The material designed to beat the HEAT

Rollers, sprockets and wearstrips manufactured from TIVAR® H.O.T. for applications in food processing show no signs of wear after numerous chemical and water washdowns, unlike their stainless steel counterparts.

TIVAR® H.O.T. J-leg wear strips are used in proofing ovens or food dehydrators.

TIVAR® H.O.T. is available in the following standard sheet sizes: 48” x 120” sheets with gauges ranging from 1/16” to 6” and 48” x 240” sheets with gauges ranging from 3/4” to 3”.  Other sizes are available on request.  It  can also be extruded in rod, tube and a variety of standard and custom profiles.®

Seals for processing equipment made from TlVAR® H.O.T. are used in food, chemical, medical and other industries.

Grain drag flights manufactured from TlVAR® H.O.T. last longer and perform better in higher temperatures or where chemicals such as Hexane are used than those manufactured from standard UHMW.
