A partial clinch of the leads at opposing corners should suffice or if that is impractical for your process, masking or kapton tape may do the trick. Good luck...

It is a through-hole resistor network that sits on the edge of the board. Due to the board space constraints, the customer tolerance for tilting is practically none. I've been trying to search on the web for fixtures/accessories that could hold this component in place, however, I'm having no luck. Any thoughts? --------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8e To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt or (re-start) delivery of Technet send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet NOMAIL or (MAIL) To receive ONE mailing per day of all the posts: send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet Digest Search the archives of previous posts at: http://listserv.ipc.org/archives Please visit IPC web site http://www.ipc.org/contentpage.asp?Pageid=4.3.16 for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-615-7100 ext.2815 -----------------------------------------------------
