Resistors

Resistors — New & Used

Resistors are essential electronic components that regulate current flow, divide voltage, and protect sensitive circuits from overload. Available in a wide range of values, power ratings, and tolerances, resistors ensure stability and performance across control panels, automation systems, and circuit boards. From carbon film and metal oxide types to wirewound power resistors, these components are vital for both precision electronics and high-power industrial applications.

At Surplus Select, we carry a dynamic inventory of new and used OEM resistors from trusted brands such as Ohmite, Vishay, Allen-Bradley, Clarostat, Panasonic, and TE Connectivity. Our surplus stock includes both standard and high-wattage resistors for OEM, repair, and prototyping needs — all at competitive surplus pricing.

Price Match — We match any authorized distributor on identical in-stock parts, so you can source parts at surplus pricing with distributor-level assurance.

Trade-In Credit — Have quality new surplus items? Trade them in for store credit toward the parts you actually need.

Fast U.S. Shipping — Most orders ship same or next business day from our U.S. warehouse to keep your line running.

Find Your Resistor Fast (Search-First)

Search your part number (e.g., OHMITE 270, VISHAY WSC2515, TE 10W).
No PN? Try specs: “10kΩ 1/4W resistor” or “50W wirewound resistor”.
