Capacitor Suppliers

2/28/2017 4:55:01 AM

We manufacture a mixed technology board, that uses a through hole "mini cap" with a 2.5 mm lead span. We have had several failures caused by solder wicking up through the plated through hole pcb and touching the can. This shorts out the capacitor. As a short term solution we are having the parts sent to a taping company that adds a bend to the leads to create a standoff. This prevents our radial inserter from inserting the part flush to the board. Does anyone know of a supplier that can provide parts such as this directly? Our current suppliers do not seem to have the capability. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
