Frequently Asked Questions
What are the color bands on this resistor?
The resistor body displays five bands: Yellow (4), Violet (7), Black (0), Brown (multiplier x10), and Brown (±1% tolerance), which confirms the 4,700 ohm (4.7k) nominal value.
What is the lead length and spacing?
Overall tip-to-tip lead length is approximately 60 mm, with straight leads ready for breadboarding, point-to-point wiring, or through-hole PCB mounting.
Why buy just the quantity you need here?
Most component distributors force you to purchase taped reels or bulk bags of hundreds just to get a single replacement value. We sell individually counted parts so you can grab the exact count required for your bench repair without padding an inventory bin. Buying more pieces costs less each, and the price-break table on this page shows what each quantity costs. Orders ship for an $8 flat rate, free once your cart passes $28, leaving our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
Every bench tech knows the quiet relief of reaching into a drawer and finding the exact 4.7k pull-up needed to bring a silent circuit board back to life.
