The Vulcan Hart 22018 Quartz Element provides consistent radiant heat to support reliable warming and cooking performance in commercial kitchen equipment. Manufactured by Vulcan Hart, this heating element operates at 208 volts with a 1050-watt output and measures 19-5/8 inches in length. It works by allowing electrical current to pass through the quartz element, which rapidly converts the energy into radiant heat that is distributed to the cooking or warming area. This efficient heat transfer helps maintain steady operating temperatures in compatible units such as warmers or cheesemelters. Its durable design and snap-in terminal configuration support dependable heating, efficient energy use, and consistent day-to-day equipment performance.
