Background information.

Industrial Heating elements are a resistance coil wire (producing heat, like a filament in an old light bulb). Further, this is encased in magnesium oxide (the white powder, compacted by rolling down from 10mm to 8mm, for protection of wire & insulation purposes, bizarrely). This is further encased in a usually stainless steel tube. For more detailed written explanation, click here. For a video explanation by some bloke with a really boring voice, click below.

Just for clarification, an Immersion Heater (see below) is 3 such elements, further housed on a screwplug, with a terminal box housing the connections. If you need Immersion Heaters, call Jamie on 01827 215684. Or possibly visit our sister site ImmersionHeaters.uk and have a browse.
