RN60D24R9FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60D24R9FRE6 is a 24.9 Ohm ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.25W (1/4W) in axial package configuration. Manufactured by Vishay Dale under the military-grade RN60 series per MIL-R-10509/1 specification, this component features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The part is currently active in production with 1181 pieces available in stock. Substitute parts may be required due to packaging format availability, supply chain considerations, or specific procurement requirements while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RN60D24R9FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The allowed substitution criteria are:

• Identical resistance value: 24.9 Ohms
• Identical tolerance: ±1%
• Identical power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Identical composition: Metal Film
• Identical package type: Axial
• Identical temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Identical operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Identical series classification: Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia × 0.344" L (3.68mm × 8.74mm)
• Identical feature set: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety

The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is packaging format: the RN60D24R9FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the substitute RN60D24R9FB14 is supplied in Bulk format. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale and maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60D24R9FRE6 and RN60D24R9FB14 are active production components manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical specifications and military-grade performance characteristics. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and procurement logistics rather than technical performance.

The RN60D24R9FRE6 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for automated assembly processes and high-volume production environments. The RN60D24R9FB14 in Bulk format is appropriate for manual assembly, prototype development, or applications where tape-and-reel packaging is not required.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected, with EAR99 export classification and HTSUS code 8533.21.0090. Component selection should be based on assembly methodology and supply chain availability rather than performance differentiation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are RN60D24R9FRE6 and RN60D24R9FB14 electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical resistance value (24.9 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C). Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is packaging format. RN60D24R9FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for automated assembly, while RN60D24R9FB14 is supplied in Bulk format for manual handling and assembly.

Q: Can RN60D24R9FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D24R9FRE6?

A: Yes, for applications where packaging format does not constrain assembly methodology. Both parts are mechanically and electrically identical with the same axial package dimensions (0.145" Dia × 0.344" L).

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS status (non-compliant), REACH status (Affected), ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8533.21.0090).

Q: Which part should be selected for automated pick-and-place assembly?

A: The RN60D24R9FRE6 in Tape & Reel format is designed for automated assembly processes and is the appropriate choice for high-volume production environments.

Q: Which part should be selected for manual assembly or prototyping?

A: The RN60D24R9FB14 in Bulk format is suitable for manual assembly, prototype development, and applications where tape-and-reel packaging is not required.
