Why tungsten metal wire is not used in heater?
A heater does not get hot enough to benefit from the expense of using tungsten wire. Most heaters use either wire made of an alloy called nichrome or plated ceramic heating elements. Heaters generally operate at red or orange heat (i.e. 1409F to 1908F) and can use nichrome wire. Lightbulbs operate at white heat (i.e. greater than 2309F) and use tungsten wire, but tungsten is hard and expensive to make into wire compared to softer metals.
