New Product Roundup – March 12th to March 18th

Welcome to another Saturday New Product Roundup! We are always adding new products to the catalogue but are we missing something you think we should carry? Send us a message, email, or write a comment – we would love to hear from you. We cannot guarantee it will be added, but we do value your feedback as the catalogue continues to grow. Ok, back to business: we just have a few new products this week so lets jump in and take a look.





Power Resistor Kit – 25 Pack

Power resistors are very handy to have around – they are great for dissipating large amounts of power without damaging themselves. This Power Resistor Kit comes with 5 each of 5 different 10 Watt resistor values including 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 Ohms.

Vacuum Pickup Tool – FFQ939

This pen style pickup tool is perfect for picking up small components. Simply press the button on the side, place the end of the pickup tool against the flat surface of a small component you would like to pick up, and let go of the button. Once you have it where you want it, press and hold the button to release the part. This tool ships with three interchangeable rubber ends – 2 x 6.5mm and 1 x 9mm

1N4007 Diode – 1A 1000V

A diode is a simple circuit component that basically restricts current flow in one direction. Diodes are often used for reverse polarity protection (to prevent damage to circuits when a battery or power supply is plugged in backwards), to protect circuits against back EMF (high voltages created by inductive loads such as motors, solenoids, or relays), or basic rectification (creating DC from AC). This diode is rated to 1A and 1000V. As with most standard diodes, it will have a ~0.7V drop in voltage when used.
