10W 120 Ohm Wirewound Resistor

This aluminum-housed wirewound resistor handles 10 watts at 120 ohms with a 5% tolerance. It is suited for LED converter circuits, speed-control boards and other power-dissipation tasks where a compact chassis-mount part is required.

Rod-Terminal Mounting

Two rod terminals with 2.5 mm screw holes are spaced 14 mm centre-to-centre and accept #2 or M2.3 hardware. The 1.9 cm body leaves a small footprint, but the rods are only 7.7 mm long so verify that your board or bracket thickness allows full thread engagement before committing to a layout.

Steady-State Thermal Behaviour

The aluminum case acts as the heatsink; sustained 10 W operation demands secure mechanical contact to a metal panel or chassis to keep the element within safe temperature limits. Without that thermal path the resistor will exceed its rating during continuous load, unlike brief pulses where the case mass absorbs the energy.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 120 ohm 10 watt resistor is operating correctly after installation?

Measure the resistance with a multimeter to confirm it reads near 120 ohms within the 5 percent tolerance, and monitor the aluminum case temperature during use to ensure it stays within safe limits for a 10 watt wirewound component

What is included in the package and what additional hardware is needed for mounting?

The box contains one 10W120R aluminum housed resistor with rod terminals; you must supply M2.3 or #2 nuts for the 2.5 mm screw holes spaced 14 mm apart

Which resistance value and power rating should I select for my LED converter or speed control circuit?

Choose this 120 ohm 10 watt version when your design calls for exactly 120 ohms at up to 10 watts; other values or wattages would not match the required specifications
