Can you show some boards with these items on them and circle what you buy and their location on the boards.Quote:

Is there a master list of product codes or something so that we can reference part numbers without having to d-pop boards? If I had known just by reference, that would have sped things up quite a bit. I can often read the caps more easily than I can get them off the boards.
Thanks!
Unfortunately their is no master code for all of the Tantalum Capacitors - If you have questions on identifying Tantalum Capacitors - Please send us pictures to info@tantalumrecycling.com
In your price list you have Hermetic A & B, C & D. Is each of those four letters assigned to a different case size? If so, C & D are the larger sizes? The last photo example at the end of your price list, the red flat SMD capacitors. Do they go in with the more common yellow and black SMD'S?
WIth Hermetic Capacitors - C&D Are Large Hermetics, B is Medium Size and A is small.Quote:

The above product of the metal cased capacitors are Electrolytic Aluminum Capacitors - These are not Tantalum.Quote:

The yellow ones are NOT Tantalum Capacitors
If you break one of those black ones open you will be left with the capacitors shown in the top half photo.Quote:

Does it matter if the cap of the big silver tantalum capacitors are slightly crushed(not breached)?
It would not matter - No.Quote:

While sorting I have found the following and wanted to ask if they are indeed Tantalum:

#2 (I have also included one that was broken into and what is inside for reference) There are no markings on it I would assume because of the "Paint Stripes"

Yes, these are all Tantalum EPOXY Capacitors! These are perfect!Quote:

great find. ive never seen these caps before. ill have to keep an eye out
Thank you TantalumRecycling!
Looking as if I may now begin to have enough (coupled with my SMD's) to possibly warrant a shipment to you!
I appreciate the verification!
Looking forward to your first shipment!Quote:

These look like Aluminum Elecrtolytic CapacitorsQuote:
