Python Sleeves + Covers Expands Sidewinder Line with New Fixed Temperature Drum Heaters

Monticello, MN – Python Sleeves + Covers, a brand of Suburban Manufacturing Group, is proud to announce the launch of its Sidewinder Fixed-Temperature Drum Heater, available beginning September 16, 2025. This new addition to the Sidewinder product line provides a dependable, plug-and-play solution for maintaining optimal material temperatures year-round, particularly during the harsh and unpredictable fall and winter months.

In industrial environments, ensuring raw materials remain at the right temperature is essential for productivity and efficiency. The Sidewinder Fixed Temp Drum Heater was designed with the spray foam industry in mind but is versatile enough for a wide range of applications. Offering set-and-forget reliability, it allows users to keep materials protected without constant monitoring, helping operations stay on schedule no matter the conditions.

The heater is available in two fixed temperature options: 80°F and 100°F, so users can select the level best suited for their processes. In addition, the product can be custom branded with customer logos, offering companies the ability to align the drum heaters with their brand identity.

The new Fixed Temp Drum Heater also complements Python’s existing adjustable drum heater with a controller, giving customers flexibility to choose between precise temperature control or fixed-temperature convenience depending on their application needs and personal preference.
