Wesco .0068uF 1200V 5% Axial Film / Mylar-Style Capacitor
$9.99
Vintage Wesco .0068uF axial film / Mylar-style capacitor marked 432PLR 5% and .0068-1200 for vintage radio repair, ham radio equipment, CB radio restoration, tube amplifier work, audio circuits, tone circuits, coupling, bypass, filter service, high-voltage circuit repair, and general electronics bench stock. This is the classic yellow axial “candy style” vintage capacitor body with printed Wesco markings and long through-hole leads.
Historical Note:
Wesco and other vintage axial film capacitor makers supplied parts used in radio, television, amplifier, communications, test equipment, and industrial electronics. Axial film / Mylar-style capacitors like this are useful for restoration work where older leaded capacitor styles and high-voltage ratings are needed.
