RoHS Compliant Chip Resistor Sourcing for Singapore’s Electronics Exporters: All 234,378 Walsin Chip Resistors List a Lead-Free Termination, from Venatech, Walsin’s Authorised Distributor in Hong Kong

For RoHS compliant chip resistor sourcing in Singapore, all 234,378 Walsin Technology (Walsin) chip resistor part numbers in our upload files list a “Sn base (Lead free)” termination, and 85 0201 and 0402 lines sat in Hong Kong ready stock as at 23 September 2026. Venatech Limited, an authorised Walsin distributor in Hong Kong, supplies them.


Venatech Limited, an authorised Walsin distributor in Hong Kong, wrote this for compliance, component and purchasing engineers in Singapore whose storage, computing and semiconductor products ship to customers that ask for RoHS and REACH declarations line by line. We parsed our Walsin chip-resistor upload files, the Venatech_ChipR_Upload xlsx set of 234,378 distinct part numbers, and our ready-stock list as at 23 September 2026. Every count below we re-measured on 11 November 2026.

What did Singapore’s September 2026 export figures show for electronics?

The strongest growth on record. Trading Economics reported on 16 October 2026 that Singapore’s non-oil domestic exports rose 68.4 percent year on year in September 2026, the strongest on record, with electronics up 107.6 percent, led by disk media products (up 312.4 percent), PCs (up 149.5 percent) and integrated circuits (up 74.7 percent).

The report adds that it was the 23rd straight month of growth and that exports to Hong Kong rose 121.1 percent. Those are the published figures. For a Singapore electronics team the practical consequence is volume plus paperwork: more boards shipped means more customers asking for a RoHS and REACH declaration on each passive part, often before they will release a purchase order. A clean declaration file for every resistor line on the BOM saves days at that step.

What does Walsin’s chip resistor data say about termination?

Lead-free on every line. We read the termination field for all 234,378 Walsin chip resistor part numbers in our upload files: every one reads “Sn base (Lead free)”, across all 13 series groups from general purpose to current sense and arrays.

That is a strong starting point for a declaration file, because the termination is the part of a chip resistor that meets the solder joint. It covers the 0201 and 0402 sizes that dominate disk-drive, PC and IC test boards: 18,215 Walsin part numbers in 0201 and 27,938 in 0402 in the same files. Our chip resistor range lists every family.

Which 0201 and 0402 Walsin resistors does Venatech hold in Hong Kong?

Eighty-five. We counted 81 Walsin 0402 and 4 Walsin 0201 resistor part numbers on our ready-stock list as at 23 September 2026, mostly WR04X general-purpose parts at 1 percent and 5 percent, all listing the same lead-free termination.

For any value not on the list, request a quote and we source it through our authorised Walsin channel. The ready-stock list is a Hong Kong snapshot dated 23 September 2026, not a live feed.

Is a lead-free termination the same as RoHS compliance?

Not on its own. A “Sn base (Lead free)” termination describes the solder-facing surface; RoHS status for the whole part, any exemption the manufacturer relies on, and REACH SVHC content come from Walsin’s own declaration for the exact part number, not from the termination field.

Thick-film resistors contain a resistive glass layer, and whether a given series relies on a RoHS exemption is something the manufacturer states in its declaration. We do not interpret RoHS or REACH for you. Our article on RoHS exemptions and chip resistor datasheets explains what to look for. We give no legal, customs or regulatory advice; confirm with your compliance team.

What should a Singapore engineer ask for in a RoHS and REACH file?

Four documents, per part number. We suggest a Singapore team ask for Walsin’s RoHS declaration with any exemption named, the REACH SVHC statement against the current candidate list, the halogen statement if your customer asks for one, and the datasheet for the exact part number.

Ask through the site and we pass the request to Walsin through our authorised channel. Keep the declarations with the BOM revision so the file moves with the design. Our guide to Walsin passive components in Hong Kong stock shows what we hold.

How does Venatech help a Singapore exporter with Walsin parts?

How Venatech helps starts with your BOM. Venatech, Walsin’s authorised distributor in Hong Kong, runs VenaMatch, which decodes part numbers from 18 manufacturers and crosses 800,000+ parts to Walsin, so a resistor list built on other brands returns Walsin matches with every field marked match or mismatch.

Paste up to 500 lines into the cross-reference tool or load a full BOM. We serve Singapore from Hong Kong in small lots with fast quotes, and give no stock or delivery promise. Walsin is the line we are authorised for; Stackpole and Viking are lines we supply.

The short version

Singapore’s electronics exports rose 107.6 percent in September 2026, led by disk media, PCs and ICs. For the resistors on those boards, all 234,378 Walsin chip resistor part numbers list a lead-free termination, Venatech holds 85 0201 and 0402 lines in Hong Kong, and Walsin’s declarations complete the RoHS and REACH file.

Send us your resistor lines and we will return the Walsin matches, the lines we hold and a route to the declarations.

Frequently asked questions

How much did Singapore’s electronics exports grow in September 2026?

Trading Economics reported on 16 October 2026 that electronics non-oil domestic exports rose 107.6 percent year on year, led by disk media, PCs and integrated circuits, within total NODX growth of 68.4 percent. These are the published figures.

Do Walsin chip resistors have lead-free terminations?

Yes. All 234,378 Walsin chip resistor part numbers in our upload files list a “Sn base (Lead free)” termination, across all 13 series groups.

Does a lead-free termination make a resistor RoHS compliant?

Not by itself. RoHS status, any exemption used and REACH SVHC content come from Walsin’s declaration for the exact part number. Confirm with your compliance team.

Can a Singapore buyer request Walsin RoHS and REACH declarations through Venatech?

Yes. Ask through the site for the declarations you need per part number and we pass the request to Walsin through our authorised channel.
