Thermon, Inc Heat Transfer Compound SnapTrace®

SnapTrace is a preformed flexible heat transfer compound designed for rapid, consistent installation over steam trace tubing on straight piping. SnapTrace also includes TFK channel, providing mechanical and weather protection to the installation. Thermon's heat transfer compounds provide an efficient thermal connection between the tracer and the process equipment. By eliminating the air voids that would ordinarily exist, heat is directed into the pipe wall primarily through conduction rather than convection and radiation. A single tracer utilizing Thermon's heat transfer compound has the equivalent performance of three to five (bare) tracers. Bulk Heat Transfer Compounds can be installed in TFK channels to create a ChannelTrace™ system. While SnapTrace is considered part of the ChannelTrace family, the rapid installation of SnapTrace on straight run s is unique and cost effective with rapid installation.
