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