Micanite elements
Micanite elements are typically used for contact heating of tools and for indirect heating of liquids in vessels.
Micanite is an excellent insulation material based on mica. The micanite sheets can be cut, punched or shaped to fit in tools, etc.
Micanite elements enclosed in flat or round metal sheeting are called band heaters.
