Digi-Key Electronics has expanded its thermal management product line by adding key flexible heater manufacturers including All Flex, TurboFlex Heaters, and other suppliers.

Digi-Key’s two largest flexible heater supply partners, All Flex and TurboFlex, represent more than 330 different options for Digi-Key customers

In serving engineers, designers, product development groups, and the electrical engineering community, Digi-Key has recognized that its customer base is routinely designing and incorporating flexible heaters in new product designs. In addition, these individuals are typically already using Digi-Key as a source for the control and electrical management of heating products, and therefore adding this new wide breadth of flexible heater options will help streamline their purchasing process.

Digi-Key is now offering the largest supply of flexible heaters in the country, with nearly 500 different models, sizes, shapes, material types and power alternatives, according to David Stein, VP global supplier management at Digi-Key.
