The Hard-to-Find Capacitor Specialists
When your production line is down or a critical repair depends on a discontinued capacitor, you need a partner who can deliver. For over 40 years, Specap has been the trusted source for hard-to-find and obsolete capacitors.
The Challenge of Finding Obsolete Capacitors
Every day, engineers and procurement specialists face the same frustrating scenario: a piece of equipment needs a specific capacitor, but that part was discontinued years ago. The original manufacturer no longer produces it. Major distributors show "obsolete" or "no stock." Production halts. Deadlines slip. Costs mount.
This is especially common with electrolytic capacitors that have specific voltage ratings, motor capacitors for legacy HVAC systems, film capacitors from discontinued lines, and specialty tantalum capacitors used in aerospace and military applications. The capacitor you need might have been manufactured by a company that no longer exists, or the part number changed through multiple acquisitions.
Common Hard-to-Find Capacitor Challenges:
- Discontinued capacitor models no longer in production
- Legacy equipment requiring exact replacement parts
- Obsolete specifications from older design cycles
- Long lead times from original manufacturers
- Minimum order quantities that exceed your needs
