About this product
A 0.5 Ω carbon resistor rated at 0.5 W in a through-hole package, used in low-resistance circuit work and testing. It can carry larger currents than higher-value resistors, but its power rating still limits how much it can dissipate. Keep the dissipated power below 0.5 W.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Carbon Resistor 0.5Ω 0.5W Through Hole in Egypt?
Carbon Resistor 0.5Ω 0.5W Through Hole currently costs 0.25 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Carbon Resistor 0.5Ω 0.5W Through Hole in Egypt?
Carbon Resistor 0.5Ω 0.5W Through Hole is available from Makers Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
What is the maximum current at full power?
At 0.5 W, the maximum current through a 0.5 Ω resistor is 1 A (I = √(P/R) = √(0.5/0.5)). Operating near this limit will heat the part noticeably.
Can I use it for accurate current sensing?
It can serve as a rough low-value shunt for quick checks, but accuracy depends on its tolerance, which is not listed. For accurate measurement, use a dedicated precision shunt resistor.
