A helically wound resistance coil made from nickel-chrome wire is precisely strung through specially designed ceramic insulating bricks, forming a flexible heating mat.
These heaters transmit heat through both conduction & radiation. The element winding is designed to heat the ceramic blocks to the point at which they radiate energy into the barrel as well as conduct energy by being in contact with the barrel – fit is not as critical as in other types of bands.
