Comment
RLR20/S is not
affected by this
notification.
Effective immediately, TT electronics will no longer accept orders for RLR07
MIL-qualified metal glaze resistors.
TT electronics has decided not to pursue RLR05 qualification to MIL-R-39017.
The RLR07 manufacturing line recently experienced a conformance test failure,
resulting in a suspension of all RLR07 shipments. As such, this served as an
opportunity for rationalization of the product family.
TT electronics has made a strategic decision to not pursue RLR05 qualification
to MIL-R-39017 at this time.
Customers with existing RLR07 orders will be allowed to cancel those orders.
Please contact your local TT electronics representative for more information.
Implementation Plan
Customer Impact
Customers who choose not to cancel RLR07 orders will experience a delay of 6
months (minimum) before TT electronics can resume shipments to fulfill existing
orders.
Customers anticipating shipment of RLR07 product from TT electronics will
experience a delay in receipt of product.
As TT electronics has not accepted orders for RLR05 product, customers will
experience no impact.
Please note that RLR20 product is not affected by this end of life notice.
