Axial Lead Taping Specifications for Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors TAPING SPECIFICATIONS REFERENCE STANDARDS: EIA RS296E CASE SIZE: Minimum Diameter: 5.0mm Maximum Diameter: 12.5mm PITCH: Standard: 10.2mm Optional: 15.2mm* LEAD TAPING SPECIFICATIONS Inside Tape (W) TAPE LEADER: A 300mm minimum length leader is provided before the first capacitor and after the last capacitor. ORIENTATION FOR POLARITY: All polarized capacitors are oriented in one direction. Anode-white, Cathode-color for polarized capacitors. INTERRUPTION OF SEQUENCE: No consecutive capacitors may be absent. Total empty spaces <0.1% of reel. SPLICES: Spliced tape strength is equal to non-spliced tape. Staples will not be used for splicing.
