We offer a wide variety of tubular ceramic capacitors, which are small in size, lightweight, non-polar, and offer high dielectric strength. These capacitors are fired to produce true monolithic structures, which are impervious to moisture and contamination.
Spectrum Control's ceramic capacitors are designed and produced in our State College, PA (USA) facility.
