Description

This potentiometer is a two-in-one, suitable for breadboard use or panel mounting. It features a 10K ohm logarithmic taper with a grippy shaft that is smooth and easy to turn without shifting on its own. The legs are spaced 0.2" apart with pin-points for easy insertion into breadboards or perfboards. Once prototyping is complete, it can be mounted into a project box by drilling a hole and securing with the included washer and hex nut.

Logarithmic (log) potentiometers are ideal for audio volume control because they mimic the human ear's response to sound, providing smoother perceived volume changes compared to linear potentiometers.
