Company

Since the development of the first silicone rubber flexible heaters to support NASA's Apollo Space Mission during the 1960's O&M Heaters has refined and expanded the custom design and manufacture of flexible heaters.

O&M holds an international patent on its proprietary process for customizing silicone rubber flexible heaters engineered from fiberglass cloth calendared with silicone rubber and nickel alloy elements.

With O&M's innovative process, flexible heaters can be made in virtually infinite configurations, size and shapes-with or without perforrations-for a perfect fit with precise temperature control. The greatest advantage of this process is that it allows manufacturing of any quantity of heaters, from a single unit to mass production. This unique capability is not available through any other manufacture in North America.
