Magnet Wire
|
|
|
 |
This magnet wire is ideally
suited for devices that draw less than 35ma current.
Manufactured by Superior Essex, Inc., this wire's small size
(about .0045" diameter including insulation) allows it to be
easily hidden or used as "prototypical electrical cable in
actual wiring situations (see photos). The
Soderon® insulation is quite durable and
can be painted for further concealment or required effects.
It is easily stripped as part of the wire tinning process.
For easy use, we package it on a 2-layer bobbin. |

Super
Flexible Wire |
|
|
 |
Designed
specifically for applications that require repeated flexing
such as voice coils, linear actuators, and robotics, this
wire is extremely supple due to it's high quantity of small
strands and super "limp" insulation. At 0.032" nominal
overall diameter, the #29 wire is only 0.001" larger than
typical decoder wire, but instead of the normal 9 strands,
it contains 51 strands of #46 (0.0015") copper wire.
It will carry 600ma of current so it is ideally suited for
most motor power wiring in Z-Scale, N-Scale and HO. If more
power is needed in larger scales, just run additional wires
in parallel. Perfect for steam locomotives which usually
place decoders in the tender (no more derails). The #32 wire
is extremely small for insulated wire with an overall
nominal diameter of 0.023". It contains 18 strands of
#44 copper wire and will carry 250ma of current. This wire
is ideally suited for lighting applications that require
flexing of the power connections (truck pickups on rolling
stock, crossing gates, bridge lifts, etc. It is also well
suited for some lower-current Z-Scale motors. The
possibilities are endless. |

Ultra-miniature SPDT Switch
|
|
|
 |
If you need an incredibly small
SPDT switch to turn something on and off, or switch between
two devices, we've got just the one for you. Made by
ITTCannon, this little slide switch features silver contacts
and will carry 150ma at 12 volts! To see just how small this
little fellow is, click on the Compare size link above.
Incredible! Mechanically rated at 10,000 cycles, it will
certainly last. The sliding action has a positive "click" |

Resistor/LED Mounting Board |
|
|
 |
You asked and we responded! These highly versatile miniature
circuit boards can be used for mounting resistors, LEDs, and
other components and have thru-hole solder points for easy
wiring. They are backed w/double-sided Kapton®
tape which can withstand 500° F. Each strip of 10 boards is
pre-grooved between the boards for easy separation (after
tape is cut). Now, placing an LED with its appropriate
resistor couldn't be easier - solder it up and stick it in
place! These boards will support SMD resistors up to
1/2-watt in size and LED sizes up to our 2x3mm ones |

LED Power Distribution Jr |
|
|
 |
This LED Distribution Board has a
20ma current source on the board top surface to provide
highly-regulated current for up to 4 LEDs. This source will
support 20ma LEDs of any color and colors can be mixed
within the group. Solder pads are provided for optional
brightness-adjustment resistors to allow individual control
of intensity of every LED if desired. The bottom side of the
board provides connection for up to 4 additional LEDs, which
can be connected as one or more series groups, individually
(parallel) wired LEDs, or a combination of both. These
connections have solder pads for LED current control
resistor placement. This module will support a power supply
input voltage of up to 18 volts-DC. A nylon spacer for
mounting is included with each board. |

Low-temperature Silver-bearing Solder
|
|
|
 |
We've tested a number of different
brands, sizes, and blends of wire solder with the following
criteria as guidelines:
- A low-temperature solder for
minimal thermal shock to our products.
- Alloy composition for good flow
and bonding to copper, brass, and nickel-silver
materials, and gold, silver, or tin plated contacts and
solder pads.
- Small wire solder diameter.
- Self-fluxing for ease of use.
- Packaging designed for
convenient use and storage (our workbenches are
cluttered enough).
Kester's Electronic Silver Solder is
our choice. It has a unique blend of 62% tin, 36% lead, and
2% silver alloy with a rosin flux core. The .020" diameter
is well-suited for close part spacing and small
surface-mounted components. Its very low melting point of
179 -189°C (354 - 372°F) makes it ideal for soldering our
LEDs and an excellent choice for other heat-sensitive
components like DCC decoders. This solder is packaged in
Kester's handy Kwik Draw® dispenser.

No-clean
Liquid Soldering Flux
|
|
|
 |
This solder flux is very low viscosity so it easily and
quickly flows in and around all surfaces requiring fluxing
in preparation for soldering. It's excellent fluxing
properties product shiny, smooth solder joints of the
highest quality. We have tested many different solder fluxes
and found this product to produce the most uniform results
with the major benefit of leaving NO residue, requiring NO
cleanup. It is packaged in a handy 1/2 oz. dispensing bottle
with a Luer-Lock® Cap and includes a mating Luer-Lock®
Stopper, and a 27 Gauge (0.016" OD) blunt needle with a
Luer-Lock® base. The needle is 0.008" inside diameter to
produce very tiny droplets of flux for soldering small,
delicate parts |
