Philco PT 29 line resistor
#11

These resistors are commonly known as CANDOHM resistors. They are wire-wound high wattage resistors and cause several problems so we generally take them out as a proactive solution. I buy the white brick type and use two methods of replacing them. If I remove the rivets I use one of the rivet holes to mount a terminal strip for the new ones. I have also pulled the wire out of the metal case then use the existing terminals to mount the new resistors. Some restorers have tucked the new resistors inside after opening up the metal case and remove the guts. This makes the repair inconspicuous.
