This 1K potentiometer is versatile and can be used either in a breadboard or mounted on a panel. It features a standard linear taper 1K ohm resistance with a grippy shaft design. The potentiometer operates smoothly and is easy to turn but has enough resistance so it won't shift on its own.The legs are spaced 0.2" apart with pin-points, making it compatible for plugging into breadboards or perfboards. After prototyping, it can be easily mounted by drilling a hole in a project box to securely fix the potentiometer. 1K ohm potentiometer, linear taper 100,000 cycle life durability Power rating: 0.2W Rotational travel: 300° Static stop strength: 90 oz-in Rotational torque: 0.5 to 1.25 oz-in Body size: 16mm Height: 24mm Weight: 6g Perfect for electronic projects that require a reliable and breadboard-friendly potentiometer for analog control or adjustments.
