The thermal inertia is but little raised by the insulation material inasmuch as their heat conducting power is so low that it is practically only the hydrogen which produces a cooling effect upon the large outer surface of the filament that determines the temperature of the iron.

Now, to make regulator tubes for currents as low as stated a thin filament of quartz or a similar material is used according to the invention, say, quartz glass. This quartz or the like filament is then coated, say, by a galvanizing process, with a film or coat of iron. The quartz filament could have a thickness of, say, 5 a (microns), while the thickness of the iron film may be of an order of 1 a (micron).
The stabilizing range of iron lies at temperatures ranging between grey and cherry redness, that is, around 700 degrees C. Inside this range the suggested insulators when serving as a supries the thin iron coat 2 applied thereon by a galvanic or electro-plating process.
I claim:
A resistance element for an iron-hydrogen current stabilizing device comprising a core composed of quartz glass whose mechanical strength and insulation power are not appreciably affected when it is raised to temperatures of around 700 C., and a comparatively thin coating of iron around at least a portion of the length of said core, said iron having an effective current stabilizing range when its temperature is around 700 C.
