High-Power Aluminum Wirewound Resistor
This 100 W wirewound resistor uses an aluminum housing to dissipate heat and is rated for a 0.5 Ohm resistance with a ±5 % tolerance. It is built for industrial equipment that demands stable performance under continuous high-power loads.
Ideal for Vibration-Prone Installations
The rugged casing and standard winding maintain accuracy in environments with constant vibration such as elevator systems or arena audio gear. Buyers who need a non-inductive winding type or a different resistance value should look at other parts.
100 Watt Continuous Rating Decides Fit
The single specification that determines suitability is the 100 W power rating combined with the 0.5 Ohm value. If your circuit requires a lower or higher wattage, this component will not meet the thermal demands.

Questions about this item
How many watts can the 0.5 ohm wirewound resistor handle continuously?
The aluminum-cased resistor is rated for 100 W continuous dissipation when mounted on a suitable cooling plate.
What are the mounting hole diameter and body length for this 59 mm resistor?
The body measures 59 mm long with a 3.3 mm mounting hole centred for bracket or cooling-plate attachment.
Which connection method avoids damaging the ceramic core when fitting the resistor?
Bolt the aluminum housing to the cooling plate first, then solder or crimp leads to the terminals; tightening leads before mounting can crack the core.
