Product Overview
The NTE 2WD47 is a 2-watt, 0.47 ohm flameproof metal oxide resistor designed for power handling and circuit protection in through-hole electronic assemblies. Featuring a ±5% tolerance and flame-retardant coating, it serves as a dependable replacement for audio amplifier emitter resistors, power supply current sense stages, and general electronics repair.
Key Features
- Resistance value: 0.47 Ω (0.47 Ohm)
- Power rating: 2 Watts
- Tolerance: ±5% (Gold band)
- Construction: Flameproof coating with axial leads
- Standard 4-band color code: Yellow, Violet, Silver, Gold
- Package quantity: 2 resistors on original card
Applications
- Current sensing and emitter ballast duty in vintage audio amplifiers and power stages.
- Inrush limiting and snubber circuit repairs in linear and switching power supplies.
- Breadboard prototyping, analog synth builds, and custom DIY electronic projects requiring low-resistance power dissipation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the lead dimensions and mounting style?
These are standard axial through-hole components with tinned copper leads, suitable for PCB through-hole mounting or point-to-point wiring.
What does flameproof mean on this component?
The resistor body utilizes a flame-retardant coating designed not to catch fire or sustain flame under severe overload conditions.
Why buy a 2-pack card instead of a bulk reel?
Buying a sealed two-pack gives you the exact count needed for a stereo channel repair or circuit prototype without paying for hundreds of surplus components you will never use. Shipping is $8 flat rate, free once the order passes $28, and orders leave our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
