Ohmite R5J68RE Radial Wirewound Resistor

The OHMITE R5J68RE 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 precision and stability in a compact form factor. Values above 3.9K (3W) and 8.2K (5W) are supplied with silicone-ceramic coatings and should be used with caution in critical applications.
