------Question for 462 Please Put your question below------
462 Kilo International 10 turn dial for potentiometer. How can I verify this knob will mount to the potentiometer I want? Like other knobs I’ve looked at, I see no information to let me know what shape or dimensions are required for the potentiometer I want to place it on.
Hello rriedel,
Welcome to the DigiKey TechForum.
The 462KL-ND dial, will fit a 0.250” diameter shaft.
Thankyou. Here I was thinking dials might take advantage of the flats and slots so many potentiometers have.
The supplier’s product page does provide some additional information regarding shaft and bushing length constraints:
It can also be seen that the series is equipped with a setscrew for fastening the dial to the potentiometer shaft. The non-flatted offerings that make up the bulk of the 10-turn offerings on hand should allow resolution of clocking/timing issue during assembly,though one may wish to consider judicious use of a thread locking agent or similar fixative in addition.
Please note also that when using the email response feature, one should delete any information contained in ones email signature if it is preferred not to have this information appearing on a public forum. I’ve taken the liberty of removing this from your last.
