Insulated 55-Gallon Drum Heating Blanket 36×84 with Thermostat (0–150°F)
Product description
What’s included: a 36×84 inch insulated drum heating blanket sized for 55-gallon containers, an integrated fixed thermostat with readout (switchable between °C and °F), and a long power cable for installation.
Construction and materials: the heater uses a nickel-chromium alloy heating element for high-temperature resistance and longevity. The active heating layer is backed by an aluminum foil heating layer for even heat spread, and the exterior is a waterproof silicone-cloth shell. An insulating layer of appropriate thickness reduces heat loss and improves efficiency.
Power and control: this 1500W band-type heater maintains temperatures in the 0–150°F range and provides an easy-to-read display on the thermostat. The thermostat can be toggled between Celsius and Fahrenheit, allowing precise temperature adjustments to protect heat-sensitive contents without overheating.
Design and usage: the blanket is flexible, removable and designed for repeated installation and storage. It fits over drums, barrels and tanks and is also suitable for pipes, valves, instrumentation and some propane vessels. Recommended for industrial settings where consistent temperature control is needed to prevent freezing or preserve viscous materials.
Customization and service: custom sizing options are offered for nonstandard drum dimensions and higher required constant temperatures. Contact the manufacturer for bespoke size or maximum-temperature configurations.

Saved my spray-foam setup
Keeps barrels warm for my spray-foam rig in cold weather. Performed reliably — I would buy this again.

Dead on arrival
Unit showed an error right out of the box and never ran. Couldn’t reach support and seller contact details were hidden on the listing.

Sturdy and reliable for livestock water
Tough outer shell straps securely around the drum. Kept livestock water thawed during very cold spells and eased a lot of worry.
