The MI Band is a high performance heater. Its performance and name are derived from Watlow's exclusive mineral insulation material that has much higher thermal conductivity than the mica and hard ceramic insulators used in conventional heaters.
A thin layer of the "high" Thermal conductivity used to MI material is electrically insulate the element wire from the inside diameter of the heater sheath. A thicker, "low" thermal conductivity layer backs up the element wire, directing the heat inward towards the part that is being heated. The result is more efficient heat transfer... a performance solution that lowers element wire temperatures and increases heater life
