Ruland Beam, 28.6mm Outside Diameter, 6 mm, 9 mm Bore, 38.1mm Length Flexible Coupling

The RS PRO series of carbon film axial leaded resistors offer excellent long term stability and feature standard solder-plated copper leads. The carbon film is the most common axial leaded resistor which is used for applications where a very good tolerance and temperature coefficient are not necessary.

Available in resistances from 1 Ohm to 9.1 mOhm
0.25W power rating
5% tolerance
Resistor body 2.3 mm in diameter, 6.3 mm in length
Carbon film construction
Long-term stability
Solder plated copper leads

Carbon composition resistors are made from a moulded carbon powder that has been mixed with a phenolic resin to bind and create a uniform resistive body. It is then surrounded in an insulating case after attaching end leads.

The power rating of a resistor describes the amount of power that the resistor can dissipate safely.

Each of the colour bands has a specific meaning. The first two colours give the base value of the resistor, the next gives the multiplier and the final band the tolerance. If a resistor has five bands, it is a more precise resistor, in which the first three bands represent the base values, and the fourth and fifth represent the multiplier and tolerance respectively.

RS PRO is our own brand range and brings you a wide range of high-quality, great value products offering you more choice. Trusted by engineers all over the world, every part of every RS PRO product has been rigorously tested against demanding industry standards; they’re only given the RS PRO Seal of Approval if we’re confident of their exceptional quality, which means you can be confident too.

The Ruland Four beam coupling is engineered to achieve precise alignment in mechanical systems while providing exceptional performance in high-speed applications. Manufactured from high-quality 7075 aluminum, it combines lightweight design with robust strength, making it suitable for demanding environments. The coupling features a zero-backlash mechanism that ensures consistent torque transmission, reducing vibrations and enhancing the durability of connected components. Its unique spiral cut design allows for greater torque capacity and minimal windup, ensuring efficient operation even at speeds reaching 6,000 RPM. With a focus on quality and reliability, this product is produced in the USA under stringent manufacturing controls, making it a trustworthy choice for businesses requiring excellence in precision coupling solutions.

A comprehensive range of high stability carbon film resistors qualified and tested to the requirements of IEC 115 and IEC 115-2. The ruggedised welded cap and lead method of manufacture provides a considerable strength and resistance to damage. The coating materials and the colour bands are epoxy resin and are highly resistant to solvents, abrasion and chipping. Improvements in materials and processing have allowed the rated power to be improved. Excellent stability against changes in load conditions or moisture levels, with a low noise level and high reliability make these carbon film resistors suitable for a wide range of applications. Rated at 70°C in free air mounted horizontally. Climatic category 55/155/56.
