Adafruit Slide Potentiometer 75mm 10K Ohm engineering development tool

Adafruit 75mm Slide Potentiometer

The Adafruit slide potentiometer is a linear 10K ohm variable resistor with a 75mm travel distance. It includes a grippy plastic knob marked with a white stripe for visual position reference. The component suits breadboarding and prototyping work where a sliding control is preferred over a rotary design.

For prototyping and audio-style controls

Engineers and hobbyists building mixers, synthesiser modules or test jigs will appreciate the smooth sliding action and included knob. Builders who need a sealed, multi-turn or motorised potentiometer should look at other component types because this is a standard single-turn slide pot.

Check mounting and wiring before ordering

The shank measures 15mm long and 4mm wide while the nub dimensions are 11.2mm by 7mm by 9.3mm. Verify that your breadboard or perfboard hole spacing accepts these dimensions and that a 10K ohm linear taper matches your circuit requirements.
