manufacturing heater coils
(OP)
I'm curious about how heater coils are made. I know that some companies take a steel tube with a wire through it, and then fill the tube with some kind of dielectric powder. So, what kinds of dielectric insulators are used, and what is the advantage using them? I've heard of magnesium and aluminum powder being used, but I'm not sure why, exactly.

Any heater company would tell you exactly how they make their heaters. So if you have one in particular just ask them.
