Where to source piezo elements?

goldyrathore · 16th June 2011, 03:04 PM

I am in need of lots of piezo elements for a line arrray tweeter experiment.
One way of having them would be to take them out of piezo tweeters but this is not a viable option due to the large numbers involved.
Since I need quite a few, sourcing from a manufacturer/delaer would be a good option.
Can someone provide me links to places I can order online?

Thanks,
Goldy

Hello Goldy, any of the big electronic component suppliers should have them,
Allied, Farnell, RS, Digikey, etc. There are many choices. Not sure of mfgs., but I would guess that you should be able to find local supply in India.

Peace,

Dave

Piezoelectric Ceramics & Materials | Morgan Electro Ceramics | Home
PI Ceramic | Leader in Piezo Technology | Piezoceramic Components: Stacks, Shear Plates, Disks | Dimensions | Piezoelectric Components, Piezo Components

There almost have to be suppliers in India as well.

Digikey sells Projects Unlimited Audio product. Way better quality than you'll find in current production Goldwood tweeters.
