Gets hot right up to the wires so tricky to mount and seal. Review: Works as described - We installed this in a 8 liter water heater for our camper. It draws 8 amps at 12 volts or 96 watts for just under the rated 100 watt heater. It heats 8 liters of water from 70f to 110f in about an hour and fits our application perfectly. The only complaint is the wires coming out of the heating element get really hot. I guess it's designed to have the wires submerged. ## Features - Cartridge Heater 12v 100w - Tube diameter: 8mm （0.32 Inch） - Tube length: 100mm （3.94 Inch） - Cartridge heaters is consist of a cylindrical stainless steel 304 tube and thus provide a high corrosion prevention - Widely used for manufacturing plastic and rubber parts in the car industry or in the food processing industry, etc ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0741664G5 | | Best Sellers Rank | #264,517 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #633 in Water Heater Replacement Parts | | Brand Name | DERNORD | | Color | stainless steel | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (59) | | Item Length | 3.94 Inches | | Item Weight | 1.76 ounces | | Manufacturer | DERNORD | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | UPC | 717643522263 603894721442 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 12 Volts | | Wattage | 100 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DERNORD - **Color:** stainless steel - **Item Length:** 3.94 Inches - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Voltage:** 12 Volts ## Images ![Cartridge Heater 12V 100W Electric Hot Rod Stainless Steel Heating Element Replacement(Tube Diameter:8mm) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51EU0piT+UL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: If I wire this property, can I use this to boil water?** A: Boil water is ok, but the connection no submersible. **Q: What kind of plug-in does it have? 3 prong AC? There are no picks on how it connects to a power source.** A: It just has wires that you have to connect to a power source. It is rated at 12 volts so your power source should be near 12V (AC or DC) to achieve the rated power output and since it is rated as 100 watts, your power source needs to be capable of supplying 8.3 amps. Incidentally, you can think of this as an 1.4 ohm resistor. **Q: I am wanting to install this in an oil catch can in my truck? The oil/oil fumes froze and broke the oil can. Is this able to be submerged?** A: This particular heater cannot be submerged; however, they do make submersible ones. **Q: Can this heat my tea?** A: Yes，this cartridge element can heat tea. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works ok *by P***D on January 15, 2026* Boils water with 12 volts but make sure you have the amps to get the 100 watts.

This thing gets hot quick. I was shocked. Just make sure no to submere the wire so I plan on doing some type of float system so the heater will always be under water. Plan to buy more once I figure out how much water this one little heater can produce in a day! ## Frequently Bought Together - DERNORD Cartridge Heater 12V 100W Electric Hot Rod Stainless Steel Heating Element Replacement(Tube Diameter:8mm) - XH-W3001 Digital LED Temperature Controller Module Digital Thermostat Switch with Waterproof Probe Programmable Heating Cooling Electronic Thermostat Range from -50℃ to 110℃ (12V 10A 120W) (2 Pieces) - tatoko Cartridge Heater 12V 100W 8x100mm Electric Hot Rod Stainless Steel Heating Element Replacement 2PCS --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/44523652-cartridge-heater-12v-100w-electric-hot-rod-stainless-steel-heating](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/44523652-cartridge-heater-12v-100w-electric-hot-rod-stainless-steel-heating) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
