Wrap Arnd.Oil Tank Heate

The Peterson Fluid Wrap Arnd.Oil Tank Heater is an external engine oil heating solution designed for cold-weather vehicle starts and extended engine warm-up cycles. This 400-watt pad heater wraps directly around your oil tank or pan, delivering consistent thermal energy to reduce oil viscosity before ignition. Mechanics and automotive enthusiasts rely on tank heaters to protect engine longevity in sub-freezing climates, where thick, cold oil can cause delayed lubrication and increased wear during startup.

Rated at 400 watts and powered by standard 110V household current, this wrap-around design maximizes surface contact with your oil reservoir, ensuring efficient heat transfer without hot spots. The 6-foot power cord provides flexible positioning near existing electrical outlets, and the compact 3 x 10 inch heating pad conforms to cylindrical and rectangular tank profiles common in street rods, classic trucks, diesel engines, and high-performance builds. Thermostat control allows you to set and maintain optimal oil temperature, preventing overcycling and reducing energy consumption while keeping oil at peak viscosity for cold starts.

Engine builders, vintage car restorers, and mechanics working in northern regions benefit most from this external tank heater, as it eliminates the need for invasive internal heater installations. Installation is straightforward—wrap the flexible pad around your tank, secure with the included fasteners, and plug into any standard outlet on a timer or manual switch. Compatible with virtually any engine platform using external oil tanks or deep-sump pans, the Peterson design integrates seamlessly into custom builds without modifying fuel systems or internal engine architecture.
