33 Ω 0.25 W ±5% Carbon Resistor – Axial

The 33 Ω 0.25 W Carbon Resistor is a passive component designed for current limiting, voltage division, component biasing and electronic circuit protection.

Its axial leads are suitable for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards, perforated prototyping boards and experimental assemblies.

The ±5% tolerance provides a practical balance between accuracy and cost, making the resistor suitable for repairs, prototypes, electronic equipment and general-purpose applications that do not require high-precision components.

Important note

The power dissipated by the resistor must not exceed 0.25 W. For improved reliability and reduced operating temperature, select a resistor with a suitable power margin above the circuit’s calculated dissipation.

Always confirm the required resistance and circuit configuration before installation. Resistors are not polarised and may be installed in either electrical orientation.
