Resistors

Carbon composition resistors are made by mixing carbon particles with a binder molded into a cylindrical shaped, and then baked. Resistance decreases as temperature increases. Resistance is more prone to drifting than with other types. Standard 'classic' resistor. Sold in multiples of 5. 5% tolerance.

Carbon Film resistors are made by vacuum depositing a thin carbon film on a ceramic form. A good choice for applications which require a steady, low power drop. Sold in multiples of 5. Pricing is per pack of five (ie, entering 2 equals a total of 10 resistors)

• 1 watt - 500V working, 1,000 V overload, 0.5" long by 0.14" dia.

Metal Film resistors consist of a resistive element of an extremely thin layer of metal alloy vacuum deposited on a substrate. Precise and quiet. Sold in multiples of 5. Pricing is per pack of five (ie, entering 2 equals a total of 10 resistors)

• 1/2 watt
• ± 1% tolerance
• -55° C to 155° C operating range
• 350 V working, 700 V overload
• Epoxy coated
• Nickel chromium ceramic substrate
• Alloy coated leads
• Welded end caps
• EIA color coded
• .40" long x .14" diameter

Wire Wound power resistors are made by wrapping a length of high resistance wire onto an insulating form. Ceramic flame retardant package. Exceptionally small, sturdy and reliable.

• 5 watt
• ± 5% tolerance
• -55° C to 155° C operating range (derated over 70° C)
• 350 V working, 700 V overload
• Excellent moisture resistance
• Stable performance in diverse conditions
• Sealed with special cement
• High temperature stability
• .86" long x .39" square
