Nickel plated steel caps are force fitted to the rods and the terminations are welded to the caps. The value is obtained by a helical cut in the film and, finally the resistor body is given a high temperature protective coating. TERMINATIONS: Solder-coated copper wire. MARKING: Type reference, TCR code, resistance value, and tolerance code are legend marked. SOLVENT RESISTANCE: The body protection and marking are resistant to all normal industrial cleaning solvents suitable for printed circuits.
