131 Products

Switches

Vary electrical flow to control speed, volume, and light intensity. Also known as variable output switches or rheostats.

Digital Potentiometers

More precise than analog potentiometers, these have a three-digit display that is easy to read.

Harsh Environment Potentiometers

Rated NEMA 4X and 13, these potentiometers are protected from debris, washdowns, and oil/coolant spraying.

Panel Seals for Potentiometers

Create a seal around a potentiometer shaft to keep out moisture and dust.

Light Dimmers

Adjust the brightness of lights.

Multi-Way Light Dimmers

Often used in large, open workspaces, these switches can be wired on opposite ends of the room to control the brightness of lights on the same circuit. They're also known as three-way switches.

Variable-Speed Foot Switches

When the pedal is pressed, the built-in potentiometer adjusts the resistance to vary the speed for motor drives.

Knobs

Turn-Counting Indicating Knobs

For monitoring the number of shaft turns on instrumentation, these knobs have easy-to-read scales or digits for quick and accurate readings. Use them on devices with round shafts.

Indicating Knobs

Control devices with round or D-shaped shafts and view settings at a glance with a pointer.

Comfort-Grip Indicating Knobs

A rubber coating or construction provides a comfortable grip. Use these knobs to control devices with round or D-shaped shafts and view settings at a glance with a pointer.

Dual-Control Comfort-Grip Indicating Knobs

These dual-control knobs operate independently to control two settings. They have a rubber coating for a comfortable grip. Use them on devices with round shafts to view settings at a glance with a pointer.

Choose-a-Color Indicating Knobs

Quickly identify equipment controls and components by their color. Use these knobs to control devices with round shafts and view settings at a glance with a pointer.

Threaded-Stud Precise-Control Knobs

Mount these knobs into a threaded hole. Turn the knob to move the stud 0.005" per graduation and make precise adjustments.

Screw-Head Mount Precise-Control Knobs

To build a custom precise-control knob or thumb screw, pair one of these knobs with a socket head screw. Turn the knob to move the screw 0.005" per graduation and make precise adjustments.

Speaker Volume Controls

Wire one of these controls between your speakers and amplifier to adjust the volume.
