Ribbon Heating Element
Ribbon Heating Elements are flat and typically flexible resistive heating elements. Ribbon coil heating elements are manufactured from Nichrome, Iron-Chrome, Nickel-Chrome, Nickel-Iron, Nickel, Stainless Steel, Molybdenum, Tungsten, and MoSi2 conductor wire. Insulation materials used on heating elements include: mica, asbestos, ceramics, synthetic liquids, polymers and fiberglass. Advantages of ribbon shaped heating elements are the low profile, flexible, and large heat transfer area.
Applications: Ribbon heating elements can be found in plastics softening applications, industrial paint booths, floor heating systems, environmental chamber.
