RL-1518 Through Hole Power Inductor
The RL-1518 Through Hole Power Inductor (Swingductor™) series offers the same electrical performance as the RL-1386, but in a vertical mount format using a molded toroid boat for durable, PCB-compatible installation. This configuration simplifies mechanical mounting and enables quick integration into existing layouts. With high-temperature operation and rugged construction, it is well-suited for demanding power applications. The RL-1518 accommodates a variety of core sizes and winding configurations for flexible electrical performance.
