Abstract

A packaging means for shipping electronic components includes a tray in the form of an open latticework within a frame. The open latticework includes internal pockets, where electronic components may be seated. The internal pockets are arranged in rows and columns within the frame, the columns being joined to one another and to the frame by severable joining members. By clipping the appropriate joining members, a strip of internal pockets may be removed from the tray in order to ship less than a complete tray-load of electronic components to a customer. A cover strip, designed for attachment to a strip on which electronic components are seated, is provided to hold the components firmly within the internal pockets of the strip for shipment.
