The OHMITE R5J15RE is a tubular radial terminal wirewound resistor specifically engineered for printed circuit board (PCB) integration. Its radial construction allows for direct insertion into standard 0.10 inch matrix boards with 0.046 inch diameter holes, providing a built-in standoff to minimize board temperature. The resistor utilizes a ceramic core coated with vitreous enamel (except for values above 4.7K (3W) and 7.5K (5W), which are coated with silicone-ceramic). It's ideal for applications requiring precise resistance and reliable performance in PCB designs. RoHS compliant, these resistors offer a space-saving solution with flame-resistant lead-free coating.
