These are 10% caps. We've sent a couple of reels of these parts back to the manufacturer. I'll update you all when we get a response from them.

Making the capacitors then pulling those that are 1%, 5%, and 10% from the mix. This leaves the ends of the screen available to those purchasing the 20% parts. It has been years, but I did experience this from a maker of film caps. Sometimes we would get all parts above the nominal other times all below the nominal. Never, nominal. When we paid for 5%, we got parts around nominal. --------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a service by IPC using LISTSERV 15.0 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 -----------------------------------------------------
