A metal strip resistor (10) is provided. The metal strip resistor includes a metal strip (18) forming a resistive element and providing support for the metal strip resistor without use of a separate substrate. There are first and second opposite terminations overlaying the metal strip. There is plating (28) on each of the first and second opposite terminations. There is also an insulating material (20) overlaying the metal strip between the first and second opposite terminations. A method for forming a metal strip resistor wherein a metal strip provides support for the metal strip resistor without use of a separate substrate is provided. The method includes coating an insulative material to the metal strip, applying a lithographic process to form a conductive pattern overlaying the resistive material wherein the conductive pattern includes first and second opposite terminations, electroplating the' conductive pattern, and adjusting resistance of the metal strip.
