A heater usable with an image heating apparatus including first and second terminals includes: a first connector connectable with the first terminal; a second connector connectable with the second terminal and positioned with a gap from the first connector in a longitudinal direction of the substrate; a third connector connectable with the second terminal; a fourth connector connectable with the second terminal and positioned with a gap from the third connector in the widthwise; and heat generators arranged in the longitudinal direction. The heat generators include heat generators activatable by the first connector and the second connector, by the first connector and the third connector, and by the first connector and the fourth connector. A gap between the third connector and the fourth connector in the widthwise direction is smaller than a gap between the first connector and the second connector in the longitudinal direction.
