Product Overview
The PT-6 is a 6-mm carbon through-hole trimmer potentiometer designed for precise adjustments in electronic applications. It offers excellent performance with a carbon resistive element, up to 10 mechanical detents for haptic feedback, and a life cycle of up to 10,000 cycles. The potentiometer features IP54 protection, polyester substrate, and is available with various tapers (linear, logarithmic, antilogarithmic) and switch functions. It is suitable for magazine packaging for automatic insertion and comes with options for loose or assembled shafts and knobs. Applications include appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
