Description
Our dual-gang pot is now available with an 18T knurled shaft.
This 18T knurled shaft is a perfect fit for 6mm knurled shaft knobs or can be used with a potentiometer adapter to fit 1/4" (6.35mm) smooth shaft knobs with set screw.
Comes with nut and washer.
Currently, we offer this dual-gang pot in the Linear / Type B 500K value only, but if there's enough demand, we'll add more values to our shop.

What is potentiometer taper?
Simply put, a potentiometer is a resistor. When you turn the pot, you change the level of resistance.
A potentiometer taper is the relationship between the position of the pot (as you turn it) and the corresponding output. This is important when using a pot as a volume knob because humans perceive volume changes logarithmically. This means that if you use a logarithmic pot (type A), the volume sweep is evenly distributed through the rotation of the knob. In contrast, if you were to use a linear pot (type B) for volume control, most of the volume changes will be "crowded" at one end of the turn.
