Patio Heaters
Infrared patio heaters provide a warm and inviting atmosphere similar to the sun's natural heat. Whether used indoors or outdoors, these heaters emit radiant heat that is directly absorbed by people and objects, rather than warming the air. This makes them an excellent choice for maintaining comfort in both indoor and outdoor spaces, especially during cooler evenings.
When choosing a patio heater, safety should be a top priority. One of the key advantages of infrared heaters is that their core temperature remains significantly lower than traditional heating systems. Many models are also equipped with a protective metal sheath to prevent burns or accidental contact. Always refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines to ensure safe usage and proper installation.
Infrared patio heaters offer flexibility in placement. Portable options like Sunglo and Patio Comfort models can be easily moved from one area to another, making them ideal for events that shift locations. You can place them on the ground, hang them from ceilings, or even mount them on walls. For more permanent setups, Infratech and Sunpak heaters can be installed flush with walls or ceilings, offering a sleek and efficient solution. These models often come with adjustable controls, allowing you to customize the heat output for optimal comfort.
One of the biggest benefits of infrared heaters is their ability to provide immediate warmth. Unlike traditional space heaters that take time to warm up the air, infrared heaters radiate heat directly toward people and objects, creating a comfortable environment almost instantly. This makes them perfect for spontaneous outdoor events or unexpected chilly weather.
Infrared patio heaters are designed for zone heating, which means they focus on warming specific areas rather than the entire space. This targeted approach helps reduce energy consumption and lowers your overall heating costs. Some models can cut heating expenses by up to 50%, making them a smart investment for homeowners who want to stay warm without breaking the bank.
Compared to conventional heaters, infrared patio heaters use less electricity while delivering the same level of warmth. Some models operate at as low as 300 watts, and their reflective surfaces help maximize heat efficiency. Since they don’t require preheating, you can turn them on only when needed, further enhancing their energy-saving benefits.
The infrared rays produced by these heaters are completely safe and do not pose any health risks. They are more effective than fire pits and offer greater control over your outdoor space. You can choose from various power sources, including propane, natural gas, or electricity. Portable models are great for saving space when not in use, making them a convenient option for many households.

Ensinger can provide nylon semi-finished plates, bars and pipes, which can be used for machining. Nylon plastic models are often represented by numbers, such as 6, 66, 12 and 46. These numbers are related to the molecular structure of nylon plastics, and each type of structure has different properties. The most common polyamide plastics are extruded nylon 6, cast PA 6 ad nylon 66 (PA66). HONY plastic can provide polyamide product including: ERTALON 6 SA natural (white) / black [PA 6] This material offers an optimal combination of mechanical strength, stiffness, toughness, mechanical damping properties and wear resistance. These properties, together with a favourable electrical insulating ability and a good chemical resistance make ERTALON 6 SA a "general purpose" grade for mechanical construction and maintenance. Delivery Programme: rod 5 - 320 mm, plate 0.5 - 100 mm, tube 20 - 100 mm ERTALON 66 SA natural (cream) / black [PA 66] Material with a higher mechanical strength, stiffness, heat and wear resistance than ERTALON 6 SA. It also has a better creep resistance but its impact strength and mechanical damping ability are reduced. Well suited for machining on automatic lathes. Delivery Programme: rod 5 - 250 mm, plate 2 - 100 mm, tube 20 - 100 mm ERTALON 4.6 (reddish brown) [PA 4.6] Compared with the conventional nylons, ERTALON 4.6 (STANYL ®) features a better retention of stiffness and creep resistance over a wide range of temperatures as well as a superior heat ageing resistance. Therefore, applications for ERTALON 4.6 are situated in the "higher temperature area" (80 - 150 °C) where stiffness, creep resistance, heat ageing resistance, fatigue strength and wear resistance of PA 6, PA 66, POM and PET fall short. Delivery Programme: rod 5 - 60 mm, plate 10 - 50 mm ERTALON 66-GF30 (black) [PA 66-GF30] Compared with virgin PA 66, this 30 % glass fibre reinforced and heat stabilised nylon grade offers increased strength, stiffness, creep resistance and dimensional stability whilst retaining an excellent wear resistance. It also allows higher max. service temperatures. Delivery Programme: rod 10 - 200 mm, plate 10 - 100 mm The addition of MoS2 renders this material somewhat stiffer, harder and dimensionally more stable than ERTALON 66 SA, but results in some loss of impact strength. The nucleating effect of the molybdenum disulphide results into an improved crystalline structure enhancing bearing and wear properties. Delivery Programme: rod 6 - 50 mm, plate 8 - 50 mm, tube 20 - 66 mm Unmodified cast nylon 6 grade exhibiting characteristics which come very close to those of ERTALON 66 SA. It combines high strength, stiffness and hardness with good creep and wear resistance, heat ageing properties and machinability. Delivery Programme: rod 50 - 500 mm, plate 10 - 100 mm, tube 50 - 600 mm ERTALON 6 XAU+ is a heat stabilised cast nylon grade with a very dense and highly crystalline structure. Compared with conventional extruded or cast nylons, ERTALON 6 XAU+ offers superior heat ageing performance in air (much better resistance to thermal-oxidative degradation), allowing 15 - 30 °C higher continuously allowable service temperatures. ERTALON 6 XAU+ is particularly recommended for bearings and other mechanical parts subject to wear which are operating in air for long periods of time at temperatures over 60 °C. Delivery Programme: rod 50- 500 mm, plate 10 - 100 mm, tube 50 - 600 mm This internally lubricated cast nylon 6 is self-lubricating in the real meaning of the word. ERTALON LFX, especially developed for unlubricated, highly loaded and slowly moving parts applications, yields a considerable enlargement of the application possibilities of nylons. This because of its reduced coefficient of friction (up to - 50 %) and improved wear resistance (up to x 10). Delivery Programme: rod 50 - 500 mm, plate 10 - 100 mm, tube 50 - 600 mm This modified cast nylon 6 grade with its distinctive blue colour exhibits higher toughness, flexibility and fatigue resistance than ERTALON 6 PLA. It has proved to be an excellent material for gear wheels, racks and pinions. Delivery Programme: rod 50 - 500 mm, plate 10 - 100 mm, tube 50 - 600 mm NYLATRON GSM contains finely divided particles of molybdenum disulphide to enhance its bearing and wear behaviour without impairing the impact and fatigue resistance inherent to unmodified cast nylon grades. It is a very commonly used grades for gears, bearings, sprockets and sheaves. Delivery Programme: rod 50 - 500 mm, plate 10 - 100 mm, tube 50 - 600 mm NYLATRON 703XL is a new internally lubricated cast nylon for special area application. Zero stick / slip is its differentiating feature. Units equipped with Nylatron 703XL can accurately display smaller movements made possible by today's sophisticated control devices. static and dynamic coefficients of friction that approximate each other at virtually every point over the Nylon product's useful range, make this possible. Applications: Wear pads; bearing blocks; wear guides; linear bearings and bushes; any load-bearing slide application especially in start / stop functions.
