What this component is

The Unique-Bargains aluminum case resistor is a 100 watt, 100 ohm wirewound component with five percent tolerance. It is built for engineers and technicians who need a stable, high-power resistor for AC or DC circuits, converters, inverters, motor speed controls or driver stages.

Verify your circuit before ordering

Confirm that your design calls for a 100 ohm value at 100 watts continuous dissipation. The body measures 59 millimetres long and has a 3.2 millimetre mounting hole suited to M2.3 hardware. Two 2 millimetre terminal holes accept soldered connections, so ensure your board layout matches this pitch.

Integration notes

The aluminium housing acts as the heatsink, so mount it to a metal chassis or heatsink plate with thermal compound to reach the rated power. The wirewound construction handles overload transients, freeing you from adding parallel lower-wattage parts. It is not suited for precision low-power signal paths or surface-mount assemblies.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy mounting hardware separately?

The resistor ships as a single aluminium-housed wire-wound unit with two solder rods and a 3.2 mm mounting hole; screws or M2.3 nuts for the #2 mounting hole are not included.

How do I decide between the 100 W 100 Ω version and any other power or resistance options?

This model is fixed at 100 W and 100 Ω with 5 % tolerance; choose it only when your circuit calls for exactly that power rating and resistance value.

What does the 100 W rating mean once the resistor is installed in a real circuit?

It can dissipate up to 100 W continuously when the aluminium case is properly mounted to a heat-sinking surface; without adequate mounting the safe dissipation will be lower.
