Construction

A carbon film is deposited onto a ceramic former. Plated steel caps are then fitted before the resistor is adjusted to value by a helical

cut in the film. Termination wires are then welded to the caps and the body of the resistor is protected with an epoxy coating.

Terminations

Material

Hot tin dipped copper wire.

Strength

The terminations meet the requirements of IEC 68.2.21

SolderabilityThe terminations meet the requirements of IEC 115-1,Clause 4.17.3.2

Marketing

Resistance value and tolerance are identified in accordance with IEC 62 4-band colour code.

Solvent Resistance

The body protection and marking are resistant to all normal industrial cleaning solvents suitable for printed circuits.
