Carbon Film Resistors
The WC Series Carbon Resistors are manufactured using mechanised high vaccum carbonising plants. This ensures a stable resistive film. the resistors are insulated with layers of light brown lacquer. The WC series offer a wide range of power ratings 0.2W, 0.25W, 0.35W, 0.5W & 1W, 2W, 3W having tolerance ranges of 5%
