(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein the
resistors unit is inherently flexible or foldable, and can be looped upon itself or collapsed into various forms without permanent deformation.
(1) Note. For classification here the resistor unit as a whole must be flexible or folding. The flexible or folding characteristic may be present in either the element or the supporting base. A mere flexible element on a rigid supporting base, such as a flexible element wound on a rigid core, is not classified here, but in subclass 302 below in the case of the example given.

114, for deformable variable resistors, whose resistance value is changed by deforming.
206, for expanded metal type resistors.
207, for resistors whose element and base are permanently folded or rolled. 208, for mesh, woven or braided resistors.
315+, for resistors with mounting or supporting means.
