AG5 Illuminateable Grey Body Plastic Colour Indicator Control Knob

AG5 Illuminateable Grey Body Plastic Colour Indicator Control Knob

This distinctive control knob features a light grey body with a translucent coloured cap that creates an eye-catching visual element when illuminated. The knob's most striking feature is its raised ridge that begins at the centre of the top cap and flows smoothly down through a sloped section to the base of the cylindrical skirt, creating both a tactile grip surface and a clear position indicator.

The knob's design combines functionality with visual appeal through its translucent coloured cap, which allows light to pass through when used with compatible illuminated potentiometers. The square-edged skirt provides a clean, professional appearance while the ridged surface offers excellent grip for precise control adjustments. This makes it particularly well-suited for audio equipment, control panels, and electronic instruments where both visual feedback and tactile control are important.

AG5 Illuminateable Grey Body Plastic Colour Indicator Control Knob

Hole Type

Splined Hole

Knobs designed for splined shafts have holes with multiple grooves or ridges that correspond to the splines on the shaft. This splined hole creates a very tight and secure fit, preventing any movement between the knob and the shaft.

The position indicator can be placed in any of 18 different directions, in increments of 20°

The ridged interior of the hole ensures a strong connection, capable of handling high torque and frequent adjustments without the risk of slippage.

A control knob with a splined hole will not fit onto a round or D typ shaft.
