IC183-5 3.5mH 18 AWG Laminated Steel I-Core Inductor

Quick Overview

Dayton Audio 18 gauge laminated silicon steel I-core inductors are the most cost effective choice when large inductance values are needed for subwoofer crossovers. Features fully annealed refined copper wire with baked enamel insulation, wrapped around a laminated steel core. In addition, all of the Dayton Audio laminated steel I-core inductors include slotted mounting holes for simple and secure installation.

Product Highlights

  • Laminated silicon steel core construction minimizes DC resistance and size while lowering saturation distortion
  • Highly refined copper wire ensures long life and reduced DC resistance
  • Baked enamel insulator creates a durable and airtight protection to prevent corrosion
  • 18 gauge construction to safely handle up to 250 watts RMS
  • Tight ±3% tolerance keeps unit to unit value consistent

Copper quality/purity: The copper used in all Dayton Audio inductors, both wire and foil based, is a minimum of 99.9% pure, providing 100% conductivity. The oxygen component of the copper is between 0.02% and 0.04%.

Technical note: To prevent crosstalk and noise position inductors in crossovers at right angles to each other.
