Applications
Caddock's Type MS power film resistors are used in applications where a compact, high-resistance precision component is needed in a robust package. Common uses include voltage divider networks, high-voltage snubber circuits, bleeder resistors in power supplies, and precision measurement circuits where tight tolerance and stable resistance are important. The MS series is found in laboratory instruments, industrial power electronics, and custom circuit assemblies. Caddock Electronics, based in Victorville, California, has long been recognized in the precision resistor market for film-on-ceramic designs that offer an alternative to wirewound types in applications sensitive to inductance. The 1% tolerance makes this resistor suitable for precision signal conditioning, feedback networks, and analog measurement systems where component matching matters.
This Caddock MS315 Type MS Power Film Resistor (500K Ohm, 1%) has been inspected and is in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was in active use. The tan molded body shows normal age and handling wear consistent with service use. Lead wires are present and measure approximately 0.25 inches in length (+/- 0.125 inches). No breaks, cracks, or damage to the body or leads are visible. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
