Abstract

An electrical cartridge heater includes a flat rectangular core of mica. A resistance wire is helically wound around the mica core. A cover sheet of mica is placed on one face of the wound core so that a return wire extends back without shorting against the other wires. The mica core is received in recesses in head and slug end bushings to position the element centrally within a cylindrical shell. A granular fill surrounds the core and heating element within the shell.
