An apparatus for drawing a fiber (11), particularly an optical glass fiber, from a heated preform (9), has a tubular heating element (1), which encloses preform (9) at least partly in its longitudinal direction, and an induction coil (4) surrounding tubular heating element (1) at a radial distance. Along an inside surface (19) of the tubular heating element (1) a protective tube (20) is provided, which surrounds fiber (11) and preform (9) at a radial distance. Protective tube (20) reliably prevents burning off of the heating element and thus a deterioration of the properties of the fiber (11).
