HISTORY:
Sustainability is the name of the game! Anything (that has been tested and still functioning properly) should be repurposed creating saving in wasted Ee and reducing the poisoning our environment when items are buried in the earth at the local tip needlessly.
Never heard of Ee? It is a concept that creates a measurement of ALL things (not just electronics) that humans have made and the energy used in obtaining the raw material, processing the materials right through to a finished product and even should include the shipping of the item to the distributors/retailers.

This electronic component is NEW, old stock
I have been unable to identify the manufacturer, the body of the capacitor has very little by way of markings. See below for further details (such as it is!)
UNIDENTIFIED MANUFACTURER - Polystyrene Capacitor
Country of origin unknown
Value: 1000pF
Tolerance: 3% (based on the only letter printed on the body i.e H)
Voltage: unknown but to be on the conservative side, I wouldn't be putting more than 100V across this capacitor
Axial leads
Identification on the body (Printed in Red)
1000
H
Note also that one end of the capacitor has a Red ring around it (like a polarised capacitor) but I cannot believe this is a polarised component, it is clearly metal foil with no electrolyte
DIMENSIONS:
Body: 10.3mm Length x 3.75mm Diameter
Leads: 29mm Length x 0.55mm diameter tinned wire
COSMETIC CONDITION:
BRAND NEW
Old Stock
CLEAN
Leads are slightly dull due to oxidisation but still remain perfectly serviceable
TESTING:
Because these are old stock, I undertook some basic testing of each capacitor that I have available
1093pF (2)
1084pF
*** Where the photograph shows multiple capacitors, this advertisement is for ONE capacitor only - not all that are shown ***
