100 W aluminium-housed wirewound resistors

This pack contains two 100 W aluminium-cased wirewound resistors rated at 0.68 Ω with 5 % tolerance. They are built for high-power dissipation in LED replacement, converter, inverter, motor-speed-control and driver circuits. The aluminium housing acts as a heatsink, keeping the wound element stable under continuous load. Engineers and hobbyists working on high-current DC or AC projects will find them suitable.

0.68 Ω 100 W rating

The single specification that determines fit is the 0.68 Ω resistance at 100 W continuous power. If your schematic calls for a different resistance value or a lower power rating, these parts will not work. Buyers who need a different ohmic value or a lower-wattage package should look elsewhere.

Solder lugs and 3.2 mm mounting holes

Each resistor body measures 59 mm long with two terminal rods drilled for solder connections and a 3.2 mm antisymmetric anchoring hole that accepts #2 or M2.3 hardware. Mount the aluminium case flat against a metal panel for best thermal transfer; insufficient heatsinking is the most common cause of premature failure. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and apply thermal compound if the load approaches the rated wattage.

Questions about this item

What does the 100 W rating mean when the resistor is mounted in a chassis?

It indicates the continuous power the part can dissipate when the aluminium case is firmly bolted to a metal surface that acts as a heatsink; without that thermal path the safe dissipation drops sharply.

How do the 2 mm solder rods and 3.2 mm mounting hole limit the way I connect it?

The two 2 mm rods are designed for direct soldering or crimp terminals, while the 3.2 mm hole accepts a #2 or M2.3 screw to clamp the case to a heatsink or panel.

Will the 59 mm body and hole spacing fit my existing bracket?

The main body measures 59 mm (2.32 in) long; the single 3.2 mm anchoring hole is centred on the case, so check your bracket for that hole pitch and clearance.
