Wire-wound resistors are often used when you need resistance with a higher power dissipation than a common film or composition resistor. Using nichrome wire makes this more practical since a meter ...

Wire wound resistors are made by winding a wire around a plastic, ceramic or fiberglass cylinder. Since the wire can be cut to a precise length, these can have a high precision resistance value ...

The VRH320 Variable Wire Wound Resistor available from ARCOL Resistors has a wide range of applications for voltage and current adjustment including industrial machinery RPM adjustment ...

Additions to the RWT series vertical-mount, thermally-fused wire-wound resistors include 2W and 7W elements to accommodate a broader range of commercial, consumer, and industrial applications ...

TT electronics Welwyn Components has launched the WPYP range of flameproof wire-wound resistor with terminations designed for direct connection across the stud terminals of a large can electrolytic ...
