Abstract
A new heating cable is described. The heating cable is comprising between seven and two hundred metallic monofilaments of a first type which are acting as electrical conductors to generate heat. The metallic monofilaments of a first type are having a diameter ranging from 30 μm to 100 μm. The metallic monofilaments of a first type are having a substantially round cross section. The metallic monofilaments of a first type are comprising a steel layer with a chromium content of less than 10% by weight. The heating cable is having an electrical resistance ranging between 0.1 Ω/m and 20.0 Ω/m when measured at 20° C.
