From Ohmite, the RJ series of rheostats has been designed and manufactured to retain high reliability and smooth operation over long periods of use. These rheostats are constructed from a ceramic body with resistance alloy winding and a vitreous enamel coating (or silicone ceramic coating depending on model). RJ rheostats have a metal spring contact arm, metal graphite composition and feature solder coated terminals.
