Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a tape heater including: at least one flexible fabric base formed from a heat-resistant thread, the at least one flexible fabric base including a first fabric base part and a second fabric base part; and a heater member, in which the heater member is interposed between the first fabric base part and the second fabric base pan. Since the heater member is interposed between the fabric base(s), the tape heater of the present invention exhibits superior flexibility and stretchability and is superior in easily being wrapped around a pipe, as well as reliably protecting the heater member. Further, tape heaters can be continually manufactured, so long as weaving or knitting of the fabric base(s) is caused to proceed while the heater member is interposed between the fabric base(s), to thus join the fabric base(s). Hence, enhancement of production efficiency and prevention of an increase in production cost can be attained.
