anyone know where i can find non inductive resistors

thanks

For HF receiving purposes? Plain old 1/2 to 2 watt carbon composition
resistors are non-inductive at HF frequencies and should do fine.

What is your intended use?

Try Radio Shack, they have all kinds of carbon resistors. Unless
your looking for a very high wattage, they "should" have what you need.

Most anywhere that sells electronics parts. Most resistors are non
inductive. If you want inductive ones, you will have to look around a bit.

I have not seen carbon (comp) resistors at Radio Shack in many, many years.


Most of Shack's resistors are carbon film. The 1/4-watters are metal film.
Shack also has 8 ohm non-inductive 20-watters.

Those carbon film resistors are the kind to use for replacing high value
resistors, especially those at the front end control grids, in old tube type
radios, to get rid of the shot noise.

Caddock manufactures non inductive resistors.............they are in a
TO-220 package, and they are used in many dummy loads. There is one other
company that manufactures tubular types with metallized ends, but I can't
remember the name. It is something like Carbarundum. I have both types in my
own stock, so I know that they do exist.

The inductance of a fixed resistor depends quite a bit on the frequency
being used and the construction of the resistor. "Most resistors are non
inductive" is a bit too general a statement, and can be incorrect in some
cases. For instance, power resistors are often wirewound construction,
which introduces significant inductance, even at HF frequencies. Many film
resistors have significant inductance at VHF and UHF frequencies as well.
Online distributors like Digi-Key and Mouser Electronics will offer some
non-inductive types, but you need to be aware of the aforementioned
variables when making your selection.

Actually, the inductance can be modeled as a fixed inductance- virtually
independent of frequency. What is a function of frequency is the inductive
reactance- which is directly porportional to frequency.
