Locktronics Resistor, 10kΩ, ¼W, 5% (ANSI) [2850]

The Locktronics Resistor, 10kΩ, ¼W, 5% (ANSI) is a precision, low‑power fixed resistor designed for use with Locktronics modular electronics systems. Presented in a clearly labelled ANSI‑style module, this component helps students easily identify the resistor symbol used in circuit diagrams, strengthening the link between schematic representation and practical circuit building.

With a resistance value of 10 kilo‑ohms, a ¼ watt power rating, and 5% tolerance, this resistor is ideal for low‑current and signal‑level experiments. The Locktronics plug‑in format removes the need for loose wiring, allowing fast, tidy, and safe circuit construction while keeping the focus on learning core electrical concepts.

Designed for repeated classroom use, the Locktronics 10kΩ resistor offers reliable and consistent performance, making it suitable for a wide range of introductory and intermediate electronics investigations.
