Constructed with premium carbon film resistance tracks inside a fully sealed miniature housing, it ensures smooth rotational feedback, minimal electrical operating noise, and enhanced resistance against environmental contamination.
Tailored for international B2B buyers and electronic manufacturers, this component provides an exceptional blend of miniaturization, robust panel mounting stability, and competitive volume-tiered factory pricing.
Key Features
-
Enclosed Miniature 9mm Housing:
Built with a fully sealed 9mm square profile, this component shields the sensitive internal carbon tracks and wiper elements from airborne dust and moisture, extending operational life in demanding commercial environments.
-
Integrated Metal Bushing Structure:
Equipped with a sturdy threaded metal bushing, the potentiometer allows secure front-panel attachment. This mechanical reinforcement protects internal PCB traces from torque stress during frequent manual adjustments.
-
Vertical PCB Mount with Support Pins:
Designed with vertical terminal pins and structural grounding legs, it guarantees stable alignment and reliable wave soldering compatibility on standard multi-layer circuit boards.
-
Smooth Rotational Control & Torque:
Engineered with a $280^\circ \pm 10^\circ$ total rotation angle and an optimal operating torque of 10 to 100 gf.cm, providing consistent, comfortable tactile resistance for users.
-
Cost-Effective OEM Wholesale Supply:
Offered at a direct-factory price of $0.15 USD with a 5,000-piece minimum order quantity, backed by scalable volume price breaks for large-scale hardware manufacturing.
