Abstract
A linear heater comprises an insulating substrate, at least one resistor strip formed on the substrate, insulating edge members formed on the substrate to extend along the respective longitudinal margins of the resistor strip in contact therewith, and a heat-resistant protective coating formed on the substrate for covering the resistor strip and the respective edge members. The respective edge members, which themselves provide an insulating function, compensate for a thickness reduction of the protective coating at positions corresponding to the longitudinal margins of the resistor strip.
