Basic Search Rules
| How to search |
| We have made searching our inventory fast and easy from anywhere on our site. On the left side of any page, the Part Search box will appear. Simply enter your part number and click Go. |
| All part numbers must be at least 4 characters long. |
| Due to the number of lines in our inventory database, and the extended nature of our search, we require at least four (4) alpha-numeric characters to be entered. |
| All part numbers are stripped of special characters. |
| It is not necessary to add special characters into the part number. Our search algorithim strips these characters out for more accurate searches. For instance, a search for MAX56/TS will return the same results as a search for MAX56TS. |
| The search will return all part numbers BEGINNING WITH the criteria you submit |
| Our search algorithim includes a wildcard ending, meaning that any part number that begins with the criteria you submit will be returned. For example, if you submit BAS1, all part numbers beginning with BAS1 will be returned, including BAS16 and BAS189785. |

| Search Tips |
| How do I limit the number of results returned? |
| The more specific you are about your part, the more accurately matched the results will be. For instance, if you only enter the first four characters of your part number, your results will probably include many variations of the part you are looking for. If you extend your search criteria to the first six(6) characters, or even the entire part number, your results will be much more exact. |
| My search is not returning any results. What do I do now? |
| If you have tried searching our inventory and your part just does not seem to be there, you may still send an RFQ. Our sales team will work hard to source your request, even if the part you are looking for is not listed in our inventory. |
