Two carbon potentiometers with 6mm knurled split shafts and 6.8mm threaded collars

Unique-Bargains

Unique-Bargains 2 pcs 6mm Shaft 100K ohm 0.05W Carbon Potentiometer

SKU CH-8QQ8-ET0KA

Pack of two carbon-composition rotary potentiometers with 100 kΩ resistance, ±20 % tolerance and 6.8 mm threaded collars

  • 100K ohm resistance for precise circuit control
  • ±20% tolerance ensures consistent performance
  • 05W power rating suits low-power applications
  • 8mm threaded collar enables secure panel mounting

Two-piece carbon potentiometer set

This pack contains two carbon-composition rotary potentiometers, each with a 100K ohm resistance value and a 20% tolerance. The 6 mm diameter knurled split shaft fits standard knobs, while the 6.8 mm threaded collar secures the body to a panel. Rated at 0.05 W with a maximum operating voltage of 50 V AC, they suit low-power adjustment tasks in hobbyist or repair work.

Sustained-load behaviour

At continuous rated power the carbon element dissipates only 0.05 W, so temperature rise remains modest in typical voltage-divider or tone-control circuits. Rotational noise stays below 100 mV during extended sweeps, and insulation resistance exceeds 20 MΩ, preventing leakage paths that could drift over time. The small shaft and collar limit mechanical torque, making them unsuitable for high-cycle industrial actuators or high-voltage applications.

Questions about this item

How much rotational noise does the 100K ohm carbon potentiometer produce?

The potentiometer generates rotational noise of less than 100 mV during operation.

What shaft diameter must my knob or coupling accommodate for the 6 mm knurled split shaft?

The shaft diameter is 6 mm, so any knob or coupling must fit a 6 mm split shaft.
