Product Overview
The PT-6 is a 6-mm carbon through-hole trimmer potentiometer designed for precise adjustments in electronic applications. It features a carbon resistive element, up to 10 mechanical detents for haptic feedback, and a lifespan of up to 10,000 cycles. The potentiometer offers IP54 protection, polyester substrate, and is available with linear, logarithmic, and antilogarithmic tapers. It is suitable for applications such as appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment. The PT-6 is also available in a lead-free, Pb-free configuration.
