(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein the resistance element and base are folded or rolled together in final form as to form, for example, a zigzag or helical resistor.
(1) Note. A mere insulation coated resistance element coiled or folded upon itself is not properly classified here, but in such subclasses as 262+ and 263+ below. Usually the resistors here classified are formed with the element and base in flat overlying layers, which are then folded or rolled together.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
79, for mechanically variable resistors with element winding and/or unwinding.
210+, for resistors which are flexible or folding.
278, for a resistor whose element is an edgewise coiled helical strip.
279+, for a resistor with a ribbon element bent or curved on its flat side. 296+, for helical or wound resistors generally.
