Description:

Lot of 6 MEMCOR / RCL RW56V130 wirewound power resistors, marked 130 Ω RW56V130. These are high-power axial ceramic-body resistors from the RW56V series, rated around 14 W with MIL-style construction and high surge and temperature capability. Ideal for use in power supplies, dummy loads, industrial controls and audio equipment where you need a robust, through-hole power resistor. New old stock (NOS) from surplus; bodies may show light cosmetic marks or color variation from long-term storage, but leads are full length and never soldered. Sold as untested vintage components.

Modern uses:

- Building or repairing high-power RC networks, bleeder resistors and load banks

- Dummy loads and power-supply testing for bench and service work

- Vintage audio amplifiers, tube gear and industrial control equipment needing 130 Ω / high-watt axial power resistors

- General-purpose high-reliability power resistors for lab projects and prototyping

Compatibility note:

These are 130 Ω axial wirewound power resistors from the RW56V series, approximately 14 W rating in free air with much higher short-term surge capability. They are not small 1/4 W or 1 W resistors and will run hot in service. Always verify the required resistance, power rating, physical size and lead spacing against the original parts and datasheet before substitution, and ensure adequate ventilation and mounting to keep the body temperature within specification.
