Measuring Slider Knobs

Width

The width is measured from one side of the body to the other at it's widest point, including any protruding position indicator markings. This dimension is perpendicular to the slider movement direction.

This knob has a width of 11.5mm.

Length

The length is measured from the top to the bottom, at the widest part of the body. This dimension is in the same orientation as the slider movement direction.

This knob has a length of 23.7mm.

Minimum Shaft Depth

The minimum shaft depth is the minimum amount that the shaft must be inserted into the body of the knob, in order to make suitable contact with the shaft fixing.

This knob has a minimum shaft depth of 3.0mm.

Maximum Shaft Depth

The maximum shaft depth is the maximum amount that the shaft can be inserted into the body of the knob. This is measured from the lowest part of the base of the knob to the bottom of the hole.

This knob has a minimum shaft depth of 6.5mm.

Height

The height of the knob is measured from the lowest part to the highest including any position indicators.

This knob has a height of 11.0mm.

Clearance

The clearance is the space between the bottom of the knob and the equipment it is mounted to. While this is not a direct specification of the knob it is important to consider this dimension when selecting a control knob.

An appropiate level of clearence between the base of the knob and the surface of the equipment is nessessary to ensure smooth control and to prevent damage.
