This flexible heater is designed for use on oil or transmission pans, but it can also be used to heat hydraulic and water tanks. The size of the pan or tank that this heater should be used on is determined by the wattage of the heater. This small, 100-watt heating pad gives you the best results with oil pans that are up to 5 quarts and tanks that are up to 7 gallons in size (see application details above).

Works as advertised
by: Rob01/28/2018
Installation was a snap as my generator was still hot from running. Peeled off the liner to expose the adhesive and stuck it squarely and securely on the underside of the oil pan. My review is only 4 stars because I haven't yet put the product to the test, but when that happens I will revisit and revise my review. Otherwise the heater arrived quickly and was as described.
by: Christopher01/03/2019
So far so good. Bought 3 for our diesels. Be sure to clean the oil pan for any dust, grime or grease. We even lightly sanded the oil pan to ensure good adhesion then used high temp RTV silicone around the edges.

Absolutely zero problems. Continues to work great!!

Just received heater today.
Looks like it should be perfect for the oil pan installation on my Kubota diesel UTV.
Hope to do a after season review next spring.

All looks good , will be glad to do business with them .

Very good value for the price. My Last pair was still going strong after seven years on the vehicle (has been sold, so can't attest longer than that.)

I put this heater on my RV water heater to prevent it from freezing. So far it works well.
by: Jason08/16/2023
I used this through a winter in the north where it regularly is at subzero temperatures. Truck always started without any issues. I also had heat pads on the oil pan and transmission that I bought from etrailer. At -40+ degrees the truck always started relatively easy.

Works great
by: Chuck03/20/2023
Was disappointed. Their product description along with the installation instructions both refer to "self adhesive" but there is none. Called manufacture and they suggested High temp silicone RTV. Do to the location of installation this was difficult to do the clamping. Added 4 days for 2 people to the process to install.
by: JK12/19/2022
We use it on the oil pan of our sprinter fleet. We run in subzero temps a couple times a year and this works great for us when our fleet has to sit outside overnight. Great product just make sure to research the size you need for your application.
by: Tim G.09/12/2023
Quality. I hope it works as well as it looks! Will install soon.

Great Product! Volkswagen Jetta TDI makes no electrical heaters. There is NO frost plug on the engine either! Installed the KAT and life is good! Starts every time.

by: Roderick01/18/2018
I bought this pad heater for my air compressor that lives in the unheated side of my shop. I ruined two electric motors due to the oil in the compressor turning to molasses during the winter where it gets well below zero. So far so good. :)
The adhesive is solid, not peeling and the pad keeps my compressor nice and toasty. Before when I was away traveling I would forget to open the breaker for the compressor and come home to a ruined motor. That problem is history.
I highly recomend this heater, very small but very effective for oil pans of all types needing to be kept warm in freezing condition.
by: David02/23/2019
I own and operate a tree service in MI, needless to say the winter months are hard on our equipment. I had searched for quit some time before I found this product, it was a very easy installation and makes a world of difference, I would highly recommend this to anyone who works in the cold weather. Thank you Kats !!!
by: Matt 02/06/2021
Works awesome! This is the second one, the first burned out after two years. We use them on 4 wheelers in the winter, on timers for 2 hrs twice a day. Put on lower crank case to warm oil...starts much easier. This one still working well after 1 year.

See what our Experts say about this Kats Heaters Oil Pan Heater
- Is There a Temperature the Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pad GetsThere are variables that will affect the specific temperature output of the Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad # KH24100, specifically the outside temperature and wind, so there is not a temperature listed. That said, Kat's does warn that this should only be used on metal and to avoid placing the pad on plastic because it is hot enough to potentially melt any plastic surface, which should give you a good idea of how hot this pad can get. Essentially, barring extraordinary...
view full answer... - Which Kats Heater Do I Use for My 2016 Chevy Equinox 2.4L I-4 EngineI checked with Kat's Heaters and they determine which heater to use by the OEM parts that are available for your vehicle. The 2016 Chevy Equinox with the 2.4L I-4 engine did not use a plug heater like the # KH11811, but instead will use an oil pan heater to accomplish the same thing. You will want to use the Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad # KH24100, which is the correct heater for your vehicle and will work on oil or transmissions with no more than 7 quarts of fluid....
view full answer... - Can The Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad Item # KH24100Be Plugged In All Night The Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad Item # KH24100 can be plugged in over night. It is recommended by the manufacturer to only place the pad on a metal surface because it does get hot and will melt plastic. This unit is designed to get hot to keep the fluid from thickening during those freezing temperatures.
view full answer... - Recommended Heating Pad for 1 Liter Oil PanThe Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad - 4" x 5" - 120V - 100 Watts # KH24100 is rated for oil pans that are a little larger than what you have. For your application I recommend using the Kat's Heaters Oil/Transmission Pan Heating Pad - 2" x 5" - 120V - 50W # KH26050 instead since it's smaller.
view full answer... - Transmission Heater Options For A 2006 Mazda B2300For your 2006 Mazda B2300 we carry a variety of transmission pan heater pad sizes like # KH24100 the and two sizes of magnetic heaters like the # KH1155 if your transmission pan isn't aluminum. I've attached our page of transmission heaters so that you can find the correct size pad to fit the shape and dimensions of your transmission pan.
view full answer... - Oil Pan Heater Recommendation for 2016 Jeep RenegadeWhile we don't have a frost plug style of heater confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Jeep Renegade with a 1.4 liter engine we do have a oil pan style heater that would work. You could use a heater like part # KH24100 which will attach directly to the oil pan and keep the oil at the bottom of the pan warm.
view full answer... - Will an Engine Oil Heater Help Me Start My Generator in the ColdI cannot say for certain but when the temperature that your generator is subjected to is cold, the oil inside the generator is also cold which means it is much thicker than at operating temperature. The thicker oil combined with your low oil shut-off is likely the reason as to why the generator will not fire up in the cold. I have done some additional research online and this seems to be the general consensus as well. The perfect way to combat this issue would indeed be to use the Kat's...
view full answer... - Does Heating Pad Need to be Placed Directly on What it is WarmingYou can use the Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad - 4" x 5" # KH24100 and not stick it on the generator but doing that will greatly reduce, if not eliminate, its usefulness. It may slightly warm it up, but there's really no way to know how much heat it will really get; these heating pads are made to stick directly on whatever it is they are heating.
view full answer... - Engine Block Heater Recommendation for a 2008 Chrysler Aspen with HemiThe only style of engine heater I can recommend for your 2008 Chrysler Aspen with a Hemi is a magnetic pad like the part # KH24100. There are no cartridge style heaters available.
view full answer... - Recommended Pad Type Heater for 1-Gallon Water TankSince you have an unusual application with only 1 gallon of water to protect from freezing I suggest you consider options other than the immersion heater # KH30904. Also note that this item is not rated for use with drinking water supplies. Kat's Heaters also offer heaters in a pad type, such as # KH24500 (500 watts), # KH24250 (250 watts) and # KH24100 (100 watts). These are installed with the included 3M adhesive pad. The 100 watt model # KH24100 is ideal for water tanks up to 2-gallon...
