Overview
The carbon comp resistors 130-239 ohm pack contains 13 fixed passive components suitable for a wide range of electronic applications. Carbon composition resistors (CCR) are fixed value resistors made out of fine carbon particles mixed with a binder such as clay. This pack provides coverage across the low-ohm range (130–239Ω), commonly used in analog circuits, audio amplification, and equipment requiring surge or pulse protection.
Key Features
- Pack of 13 resistors covering 130–239 ohm resistance values
- High capability to withstand high energy pulses; the entire carbon composition body conducts the energy, resulting in higher thermal mass and higher energy capability
- Axial through-hole design for circuit board mounting
- Passive component requiring no power supply or configuration
- Suitable for audio circuits and legacy electronics restoration
