I was looking for things to be able to use for a heater for my lube sizer. Do you guys think this would work if I epoxied it to the sizer. Seems to be a cheap way to warm one up if it works. You can adjust the temp of it also.

May need insulation wrap to hold the low wattage heat to the sizer, which would hold it in place. Insulation and electrical tape?

Wrapping it in heat tape would be cheaper!

A Harbor Freight heat gun works fast and costs about $8 to $10. Just have to careful not to get it too hot. Also many other uses.

Mounted my lubrisizer on an aluminum plate big enough to set my wifes old iron on. Set it on low and it will transfer the heat right up to the sizer. Works great and wife got a new iron out of the deal. Go to a thrift shop , I am sure you can pick a used one up fort a couple of bucks.
