The Mica heaters are an etched foil element, sandwiched between layers of mica. Mica material creates a fairly rigid heater, but is also able to handle extreme temperatures. For use at lower temperatures (below 100°C), it works perfect as a stand-alone heater. However, higher temperatures require proper support and even pressure to provide good heat transfer. For example, it can be uniformly clamped between two metal plates.
