Title: Source for HIGH QUALITY slide pots
Post by: cavaricooper on July 30, 2017, 07:05:25 AM
Hi-

Looking for high quality slide pots, 30mm throw/slide, 10k with 200k + cycle life. The only ones Digi-Key have are too wide at 16mm. I need 6, about 13mm wide and 50mm long.... replacing the sliders on a PFC TQ inside a Cirrus Console II.

Any suggestions will be most appreciated!

Best- Carl

Hi,
These are 10mm and 100k cycles. Should be way better than originals. In my
Ga cockpit i have not used anything like this and no dust covers and my pots are
still good after years of use.
Hope it helps.
