Description
Alpha® Audio-Taper PotentiometersThis listing is for 3-packs of Alpha-brand A250K, A500K, and/or A1M potentiometers with corresponding nuts and washers (a nut and a washer are included for each potentiometer). Audio-taper potentiometers are sometimes referred to 'A-Series' pots or just A-pots' due to the naming scheme - all linear-taper potentiometers are prefixed with a 'A', followed by the maximum resistance (for example, an audio-taper potentiometer with a 250K-ohm maximum resistance would be marked 'A250K'). You can select the desired number of potentiometers and resistance from the drop-down menu above. If you need to purchase more than three potentiometers, simply add more than one pack to your cart.
Discounts up to 20% off are available for purchasing multiple items.
You are welcome to mix and match different resistances - you'll still get the discount!
Alpha products are a cut above the rest, with smoother turning action, greater durability, and more precise tolerances leading to longer life and less risk of failure (as well as higher maximum rated power compared to most 'generic' brand pots). All Alpha pots come with a dust cover already installed, which prevents dust from entering the mechanism and causing problems.
In addition to A250K, A500K, and A1M sizes, we also sell replacement dust-covers in case your original dust covers become lost, worn, or damaged. These dust covers fit any equivalently-sized potentiometer (including non-Alpha brands); dust covers are not branded. We restock frequently, so if we're out of the resistance/quantity that you're looking for, please check back soon! You are welcome to send a message inquiring as to when an item will be back in stock, though sometimes it's hard to predict due to the fact that shipping times have been all over the place in 2020...a 'best guess' based on experience is the best we can do. In case you're curious, our outgoing (to you) shipping policies are located at the end of this description, so you can scroll ahead if that's what you're looking for!
