Pipe Tracing Cable
Pipe tracing cable keeps pipes from freezing and holds process fluids at the right temperature. It's used on water lines, fire sprinkler piping, fuel oil, chemical lines and anything that must flow even in cold weather.
Cable Types
- Self-regulating cable – output adjusts automatically to pipe temperature and can be cut to length
- Constant wattage cable – steady output for long runs and higher temperatures
- Mineral insulated cable – extreme temperature and hazardous area service
- Pre-terminated kits – ready-to-install for short pipe runs
Planning a System
Heat trace design depends on pipe size and material, insulation thickness, minimum ambient temperature and the temperature you need to maintain. Use proper connection kits, end seals and a thermostat or controller, and install ground-fault protection as required by code. Insulation is essential for performance.
Centro can help you select pipe tracing cable and components for freeze protection and process temperature maintenance.

The Nelson HASKS heat trace splice kit is the inline splice variant of the HASK Series connection kits, approved for use in Class I, Division 1 hazardous locations when used with Nelson LT, HLT, and XLT Series field-fabricated heating cables. It is purpose-built for joining two heat trace cables in a straight, in-line splice configuration — whether you're extending a cable run, bridging across removable equipment, or connecting cables of different wattages within the same circuit.
The kit includes an approved explosion-proof junction box, seal fittings with reducers, sealing compound and packing fiber, cable entry seals with grommets, power terminations with adhesive sealant, and a 3-point floating terminal block. The HASK Series carries Factory Mutual and Canadian Standards Association approval for C1D1 installations, making it a code-compliant solution for refineries, chemical plants, petrochemical facilities, and other hazardous process environments where flammable gases or vapors may be present under normal operating conditions.
Hazardous area classifications covered include Class I, Division 1, Groups B, C and D; Class II, Division 1, Groups E, F and G; Class III; and Class I, Zone 1, IIB.

FAQS
- Heat cable, also known as heat trace cable, is an electric heating cable designed to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes, tanks, roofs, or equipment. It works by generating heat when electrical current flows through the cable, preventing freezing or maintaining process temperatures.
- While some self regulating cables can operate without a thermostat, using a temperature controller or thermostat improves energy efficiency, extends cable life, and ensures consistent temperature control.
- To select the right heat cable, consider pipe size and material, minimum ambient temperature, required maintenance temperature, power availability, environmental exposure, and whether the area is hazardous or non hazardous.
- Yes. Heat cable can be installed on both plastic and metal pipes, but the cable type and maximum exposure temperature must be compatible with the pipe material.
