The ZipWire™ Kit provides a convenient way to connect the signals in your projects. The wires can be unzipped for individual wires as needed and the color-coding can be used to organize power, ground and other signal types to keep your circuit organized. The rainbow colored ribbon cable provides the 10 standard electrical colors.

• Lap joint construction provides protection against access of dust and splashing water.
• Designed to meet IP54.
• Molded from flame retardant, easy to machine, translucent polycarbonate (material carries a UL flammability rating of 94V-2).
• Lid is secured with M3 x 10 mm Phillips machine screws, threaded into integral brass bushings.

600V solid wire. UL style 1015, rated to 105 degrees C. Perfect for new projects, rewiring electrical equipment, or use in breadboards, perfboard, and veroboard/stripboard.

The shrink ratio on this tubing is 2 to 1, it is fungus resistant and non-corrosive. It is recommended for tightly sealing connectors, terminals, wire splices, and tool handles. It may be shrunk with heat guns, oven, etc. Comes in 6 inch lengths, quantity of 23.

High quality 24AWG wire from Weico featuring a topcoat of solder over the strands. This wire is pre-tinned in the sense that a coating of solder is already applied, bonding the individual strands together so no additional tinning is required. This wire is ready to go as soon as it is cut and stripped making assembly that much easier. Rated at 300V and offered in a variety of colors, this wire is a great option for a variety of different projects.

5.72″ x 4.77″ x 1.55″ (145mm x 121mm x 39mm) diecast aluminum enclosure. Equivalent to the Hammond P-H1590XX enclosure. This large enclosure is great for bigger projects.

ST3U StripBoard is a prototyping circuit board with a standard long strip pattern. Tracks run the length of the board. The long tracks are convenient for power and ground rails, and for signal buses. Strips can be cut as needed to make smaller tracks and circuit pads. It has 0.1" hole spacing for DIP integrated circuits and headers and other parts. It has higher quality than traditional stripboard. The holes are drilled, not punched. The base material is high-quality FR4 glass epoxy board. It has better stability and moisture resistance than boards using phenolic or SRBP (synthetic resin bonded paper), which can warp with exposure to humidity. Features

• Standard stripboard pattern, with tracks running the length of the board.
• Single-sided high-quality FR4 glass-epoxy circuit board.
• 1oz/ft2 copper with an anti-tarnish coating for easy soldering.

• Rugged, diecast aluminum alloy (tough yet easy to machine), electronic instrument enclosure.
• Lap joint construction provides protection against access of dust and splashing water. Also provides for improved EMI/RFI shielding.
• Vibra finished for a smooth surface with no sharp edges.
• Four 6-32 x ½" machine screws secure lid - into tapped holes.
• Designed to meet IP54.
• Low side wall draft angle (2 degrees or less) for easy P.C.

Coiled metal wire type tip cleaner for use with soldering irons. The metal wire cleaner requires no water which reduces temperature drops in the tip compared to using a sponge. The black metal holder is dome shaped to reduce airborne solder droplets when cleaning. The holder has a detachable top and bottom to easily empty when necessary.

Atten TJ-228 soldering iron stand with adjustable mounting angle, sponge holder and solder spool stand. This stand is a great option for stand-alone soldering irons or as a replacement for a worn out stand.

This is a small double pole double throw (DPDT) effect / bypass latching switch for MXR pedals. Genuine Dunlop replacement part. Six pin through hole PCB mount.

VTL5C1 vactrols for use in amplifiers, effect pedals, synthesizers and more. The VTL5C1 was commonly used for channel switching circuits in amps made by Crate and others.

4PDT latching footswitch with solder lugs. Blue with 12 solder lugs. Made in Taiwan.

All-metal solder spool stand with a large metal roller for a smooth reel out. This stand features a handle as well as an eyelet that holds the solder line in a static position for ease of use. Extremely useful for making your soldering jobs quick and easy!

The AS3280 is Alfa’s version of the CA3280 IC. The AS3280 consists of two variable operational amplifiers that are designed to substantially reduce the initial input offset voltage and the offset voltage variation with respect to changes in programming current. This design results in reduced "AGC thump," an objectionable characteristic of many AGC systems. Careful design of critical places of the circuit reduces the amplifier dependence upon thermal and processing variables.
The AS3280 has all the generic characteristics of an operational voltage amplifier except that the forward transfer characteristics is best described by transconductance rather than voltage gain, and the output is current, not voltage. The magnitude of the output current is equal to the product of transconductance and the input voltage.

Right Angle Daisy Chain connector with standard polarity tip negative/barrel positive plugs connects the Power-All® ECO-Dapter® 9 VDC power supply to five effect pedals. The Cable-5/R can also be used with Power-All jumper cables to power effects that use different style jacks (reverse polarity, phone plug, battery clip, etc.). You can also link multiple Cable-5/R connectors to power over twenty 9-volt effect pedals or similar devices (actual number of units depends on current draw of individual units used).

4.72" x 3.70" x 2.1" (119mm x 94mm x 56mm) diecast aluminum enclosure. Equivalent to the Hammond 1590C enclosure. This enclosure is a taller version of the 1590BB allowing for more vertical space for larger projects.

Carling SPST latching On-Off footswitch. Used in Fender etc. Reverb/tremolo/channel switching pedals, (110-P).
