Perfect for hands-on hobbyists. Foot-pedal speed controls free up your paws to do the real work. This one's for 120VAC devices, and ideal for machines using approx 200W or 1.6A or less. Measures 5" x 3" x 2-1/4" tall, with a 6-foot cord that plugs into the wall and a 2-foot grounded female plug for your sewing machine, rotary tool, scroll saw, or, if you really make a lot of banana Daiquiris, blender.

Okay, they’re just strips of metal, but CJ says one of each and a grapefruit will get you at least a “C” at the science fair. The copper electrode is 100mm long x 18mm wide  x .8mm thick (3.94" x .7" x .041”). The zinc electrode is 4” long x 3/4” wide x .027” thick and stamped “ZN”. And both of them are awfully useful for crafters and jewelry makers, too.

Rated for 10A at 250VAC, these normally closed thermal fuses will pop at 128ºC or 262ºF. The fuses themselves are 1/2" long but yours will be wired into leads of assorted lengths, because they were betooken out of coffeemakers of some sort. Never been popped, though, because then they would be useless and who'd buy 'em?

With this 1.2K OHM 10% tolerance power resistor. Rated 3 to 5 watts, it has a ceramic block body 3/8" sq x 1-1/2" long with wire leads on ends, one of which is 1/2" long and the other 1-1/2". Any questions?

Our black anodized channel-style heat sink measures 1-1/4" x 1-1/2" x 7/16" with folded back fins and a pair of 1/8" mounting holes in the flat center. Come on, you've got some heat to sink. Who doesn't?

These black aluminum alloy heat sinks have flared fins at 1-3/8" x 1-1/2" x 1/2" with (2) pins out one short side and (3) 1/8" mounting holes in the center. Wethinks these are PCB mounts for TO series chips.

Our VP for Sensing Fluid Pressure called this sensor from Kavlico “sweet.” Needs a 5VDC 20mW power source, and will likely put out 0-4VDC, contingent on pressure, from 0-5"/H2O max, we’d say. Measures 1-5/16" x 17/32" on a pair of 7/8" long 5/32" slotted mounting wings. The upper 3/16" OD barb is the low side, and the lower is (ironically) high. Has a 3-pin connector with legend on the back for power and output. Call for a data sheet.

This chassis-mounted in-line EMI filter from Schaffner (model #FN2020-3-06) accepts up to 3A at 110/250VAC. Unit measures 1-3/4" x 1-5/16" x 1-3/16" with (2) 3/16" mounting holes on side wings. Has 1/4" quick-disconnect terminals and has a wiring diagram on the housing. UL/CSA.

From Honeywell (part #AWM730B5), this medical airflow sensor is a takeout with a range from -300 to +300 SI/min. With a 5V activating current, will give an output between 0.5 and 4.5V responding in <10ms. Pins 1-4 are +15VDC in, ground, 5V in, and output. Unit measures 1-7/8" long x 13/16" dia, mounted on a 1-1/8" x 1-3/4" bracket. We'll include a spec sheet. Made in the USA.

This 4" x 3-3/4" x 1-3/4" medical take-out air sensor has (3) ports coming off the main 3-1/8" x 3/4" ID chamber, (2) leading to one sensor and the other leading to a second one, then through circuitry on a mounted PC  board leading to a 10-pin output connector. Also has a PCB-mounted 3V coin cell battery. The sensors have input, output and trigger voltage and a voltage output, but we have no specs. Nice parts and pieces, though.
