5.6k Ohm 0.25W Carbon Film Resistor - 5% Tolerance (Pack of 5)

Product Description The 5.6k Ohm 1/4 Watt Resistor is a versatile passive component essential for electronic signal conditioning and circuit biasing. These carbon film resistors feature a 5% tolerance, making them highly reliable for pull-up/pull-down networks and RC timing circuits. With a standard 0.25W power rating, they provide stable performance in a compact form factor, ideal for Arduino projects, sensor interfacing, and professional PCB assembly.

Key Features
