a shorter length than shown.

NS NON-INDUCTIVE
Models of equivalent physical and electrical specifications are
available with non-inductive (Aryton-Perry) winding. They are
identified by substituting the letter N for R in the model
number (NS-5, for example). Two conditions apply:
1. For NS models, divide maximum resistance values by two
2. Body O.D. on NS-2C may exceed that of the RS-2C by 010"
*All R figures shown are maximum, based upon testing requirements per MIL-PRF-26.
