Metal cylindrical heater threads into an engine oil pan and warms up viscous oil, protecting critical components

HOTSTART lube oil heaters thread into the engine’s oil pan to keep the oil warm. When cold, oil becomes very viscous and may not protect engine components. Upon start-up, warm oil is supplied to the critical wear points in the engine. This reduces engine wear and allows easier starts which prolong battery life.

These heaters, available in various AC voltages as well as 12 and 24 volt DC, range from 75 to 500 watts. The OW series of heaters are for weathertight engine applications and come with or without a thermostat.  

If heating gear oil (medium weight viscosity), HOTSTART recommends using low watt density heaters. 

Not intended for hazardous locations.
