Abstract
A linear heater comprises an insulating substrate, at least one resistor strip formed on the substrate, and a heat-resistant protective coating formed on the substrate for covering the resistor strip. The resistor strip has a double-layer structure which includes a first resistor layer formed directly on the substrate, and a second resistor layer formed on the first resistor layer. The first resistor layer has a pair of upwardly bulging longitudinal margins, whereas the second resistor layer is formed between the pair of upwardly bulging longitudinal margins of the first resistor layer to provide a substantially flat surface.
