Surface Mount Power Resistors
There are several mounting options available for Ohmite resistors. As the power requirements rise the type of mounting power resistors will change. Lower wattage parts come in SMD form, typically below 3 watts. As power rises, axial thru-hole mounting is used up to 10 watts. Heatsinkable designs and Tubular parts are used for higher wattages above 20 watts. Each mounting style has its own advantages depending on the application.
Axial Lead
Since the parts are received from the factory without any bends, it offers the end user the option to bend and mount per their application. Request a quote today!

Tubular
Large tubular substrates offer a large surface area to apply resistive materials and are very robust requiring the use of mounting hardware. Call now!

Surface Mount for Power Resistors
Surface mount parts (SMD or SMT) are mounted on one side of the PCB. This offers space savings as the other side is free from a solder connection. The solder traces used for the surface mount…
