Powerblanket WX05 Powerblanket® Insulated Wax & Glycerin Melting Heater For 5 Gallon Bucket, 200°F
WE'VE CREATED THE WAX BLANKET TO SOLVE THE ISSUES PRESENTED BY TRADITIONAL HEATING METHODS SUCH AS SCORCHING, OR HAVING TO BABYSIT A DOUBLE BOILER SO IT DOESN'T RUN OUT OF THE WATER. DESIGNED TO FIT A STANDARD-SIZED 5-GALLON METAL PAIL, THE WAX BLANKET WILL SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY MELT YOUR WAX OR GLYCERIN INTO A USABLE LIQUID FORM WITH MINIMAL ATTENTION ON YOUR PART. THE HEATING ELEMENTS IN THE BLANKET REACH FROM THE BOTTOM EDGE TO THE TOP EDGE AND PROVIDE A TARGETED AND EVEN HEAT DISTRIBUTION. SIMPLY WRAP IT AROUND YOUR BUCKET, PLUG IT IN, AND CHECK BACK EVERY FEW HOURS TO SEE HOW THE PROGRESS IS GOING. THE WX05 IS AN INSULATED BAND-STYLE PAIL HEATER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO FIT A 5-GALLON METAL BUCKET OR PAIL AND SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY HEAT UP YOUR WAX OR GLYCERIN. THE HEATER IS BUILT FOR USE WITH 120 VOLTS AC, DRAWING 1.46 AMPS THUS PRODUCING 175 WATTS. IT HAS A PRESET THERMOSTAT SET TO MAINTAIN A BLANKET TEMPERATURE OF 200 °F / 93.3 °C AND A PRODUCT TEMPERATURE OF 185 °F / 85 °C ( 10 °F / 5 °C). THE WX05 WAX BLANKET SHOULD NEVER BE USED ON A PLASTIC OR POLY BUCKET AS THE HIGH TEMPERATURES GENERATED FROM THE PAIL HEATER WILL MELT THE PLASTIC BUCKET. MELTING WAX & GLYCERIN SOAP MAKING AND CANDLE MAKING ARE ANCIENT PRACTICES. THE METHODS IN WHICH THE GLYCERIN OR WAX IS HEATED INTO A USEABLE FORM BY THE ARTISAN ARE AS OLD AS THE ART FORMS THEMSELVES. DOUBLE BOILERS ON THE STOVE TOP, HOT PLATES, AND MICROWAVES ARE THE OLD STANDBY METHODS, EACH COMPLETE WITH AN EQUAL LIST OF PROS AND CONS. MELTING WAX FOR CANDLE MAKING WHETHER BEESWAX, SOY, PARAFFIN, OR PALM WAX, THE MELTING PROPERTIES ARE SIMILAR. RULE NUMBER ONE FOR MELTING ANY TYPE OF WAX IS, NEVER LEAVE IT UNATTENDED DURING THE HEATING PROCESS. THE NATURE OF SOLID WAX IS THAT IT LIQUEFIES SLOWLY, BUT THEN THE TEMPERATURE RISES QUITE RAPIDLY. CERTAIN TYPES OF WAX CAN ACTUALLY GIVE OFF FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND EVEN COMBUST IF THE TEMPERATURE REACHES THE FLASH POINT. FURTHERMORE,
