Hey Russ! This is a bit weird ...
These are the sort of tiny little pieces of hardware that you can never find when you need them! Commonly used to support the legs of heat generating components e.g power resistors
I am very much "into" sustainability, a manufactured component (no matter how small) represents an appreciable amount of embedded energy and to waste that embedded energy is a very bad thing, even worse is to bury it in landfill and subsequently poison our environment!
What is embedded energy?
Embedded energy is a measurement of the total energy that was used to create a component, a module or a complete piece of equipment originally and should include all processes used in the manufacture of the item, from obtaining the raw materials, processing them, making the product and then shipping to another manufacturer in the "chain" or being supplied directly to stores as a finished product for retail sale.
Because these are usually used in multiples of two, each packet contains two of these ceramic insulators.
