No, but it controls one. When it makes contact the relay closes and the system comes on.
The cost of a bimetallic strip can vary depending on the size, material, and manufacturer. On average, a bimetallic strip can range from a few dollars to tens of dollars.
A bimetallic strip is made of two different metals bonded together, which have different coefficients of thermal expansion. This causes the strip to bend when heated or cooled. Bimetallic strips are often used in thermostats, temperature switches, and circuit breakers to control temperature-sensitive mechanisms.
Commonly, brass and steel are used in a bimetallic strip. This combination allows the strip to bend or warp when subjected to temperature changes due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of the two metals.
A bimetallic strip is typically made of two different metals fused together, such as brass and steel or copper and iron. These metals have different coefficients of thermal expansion, causing the strip to bend when exposed to temperature changes.
A bimetallic strip could be used in a thermostat, where it can bend and complete or break an electrical circuit to regulate temperature.
The relay controls the flow of current through the circuit breaker by responding to an overcurrent situation. When the relay detects an overcurrent, it triggers the circuit breaker to open, which releases the tension on the bimetallic strip inside. This causes the bimetallic strip to bend and disconnect the circuit, effectively breaking the flow of electricity to prevent damage or hazards.
The bimetallic strip bends.

Bimetallic strip
When the temperature of the iron increases, the bimetallic strip bends upwards. This breaks the contact between the strip and the heating coil. When the temperature falls, the bimetallic strip bends down and the contact is restored.

An indicator flasher relay works by using a bimetallic strip or electronic components to control the on-off cycling of turn signal lights. When the turn signal is activated, current flows through the relay, heating the bimetallic strip or triggering the electronic circuit, which causes the relay to open and close the circuit rapidly. This rapid cycling creates the blinking effect of the indicator lights. In essence, the relay regulates the flow of electricity, allowing the lights to flash at a steady rate while conserving battery power.

A helical bimetallic strip is two strips of metal with differing boiling points that have been fused together, spiraling upwards around a central object. When heat is applied to the bimetallic strip, the different chemical properties in each metal strip will cause them to expand, forcing the helical strip to expand upwards.
