120pcs 1/4W (0.25 Watt) 10k ohm Metal Film Resistor

120pcs 1/4W (0.25 Watt) 10k ohm Metal Film Resistor

Key Features

• Quantity: Pack of 120
• Resistance Value: 10k ohm (10,000 ohms)
• Power Rating: 0.25 Watt (1/4W)
• Resistance Tolerance: ±1%
• Construction: Metal film for high precision and stability
• Lead Type: Axial for through-hole mounting
• Features: Low noise operation and high thermal stability

Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

• Direct replacement for any standard axial resistor with matching 10k ohm, 1/4W, and ±1% specifications.
• Can also be used to replace resistors with a higher tolerance (e.g., 5%, 10%) for improved circuit accuracy.

Compatibility & Fitment

• Suitable for a wide range of electronic applications, including prototyping, repair, and DIY projects.
• Commonly used in:
  • Arduino and other microcontroller boards
  • Audio circuits and power supplies
  • Automotive electronic repairs
  • Breadboarding and circuit building
• Axial leads are compatible with standard breadboards and through-hole printed circuit boards (PCBs).

When to Replace

• Replace existing resistors that are burned, damaged, or show signs of overheating.
• When a circuit is malfunctioning and a multimeter test shows the resistor is open, shorted, or has drifted outside its specified tolerance range.
• During preventative maintenance or when upgrading a circuit for higher precision.

Installation Tips

• Verify the resistance value with a multimeter before installation.
• Use the color code bands (Brown, Black, Black, Red, Brown for a 5-band 1% resistor) to confirm the value.
• Bend the leads gently to fit the circuit board or breadboard hole spacing.
• When soldering, avoid applying excessive heat to the resistor body.
• Standard resistors are not polarized and can be installed in either direction.
