Ceramic heaters can take a variety of form factors to handle specific kinds of applications.
Ceramic heating resistor.
However there are also advanced ceramic heaters that have a different kind of heating element.
The good thermal conduction and the low thermal mass of the ceramic material allow extremely fast heating rates a uniform temperature distribution and high control accuracy.
However even this description is out of date.
They are most often wire wound resistors.
Ceramic heating rings made of silicon nitride can be produced with an outer diameter of up to 300 mm.
It is a nickname for the heat resistant ceramic case in which a coil of resistance wire is potted.

A typical extent of the rings is 5 mm.
Cement resistor only describes the appearance of common power resistors like that shown above.
