Potentiometers

There's many thing you need to know when finding the correct potentiometer, trimmer, rheostat,

and dials such as:

  • What type of potentiometer do you have? Linear - also called linear taper, used for more industrial applications, more common of styles. Audio - also called audio taper, used for stereo & television controls

  • Shaft Length (Common lengths are 2 inch round, 5/8 inch screwdriver slotted, and 7/8 inch screwdriver slotted)

  • Standard or military bushing

  • Wattage (the most common being 2 watt)

  • Number of turns (the most common being 1 turn or 10 turn)

  • Ohms (wide variety)
