Carbon Resistor 27Ω 0.25W Through Hole
The 27 Ω, 0.25 W axial carbon resistor (carbon composition/film) features a compact cylindrical body 2.5 mm in diameter and 6.8 mm long—built around a ceramic core coated with resistive carbon. Its slim axial-lead design enables easy through-hole PCB mounting and automated assembly, while the epoxy coating provides mechanical protection and electrical insulation.
Rated for 0.25 W power dissipation at 70 °C with ±5% tolerance, this resistor maintains consistent performance across a typical operating temperature range of –55 °C to +125 °C. With a moderate temperature coefficient (–5 to +6.5 ppm/°C for composition type, or up to ±450 ppm/°C for film), it offers predictable behavior across thermal conditions without requiring high-precision temperature compensation.
Constructed with solder-plated copper leads and sturdy welded caps, the resistor withstands vibration and moisture exposure, making it suitable for general-purpose circuits in automotive, consumer, and industrial applications. Its balance of compact size, robustness, and cost-effectiveness makes it an ideal choice for everyday signal and current limiting tasks.
