Tapered Black Control Knob with Silver Cap
Tapered Black Control Knob with Silver Cap
This distinctive control knob features a sleek black body with a tapered profile that narrows towards the base, creating an elegant silhouette that stands out from conventional cylindrical designs. The striking silver aluminium end cap provides both visual contrast and a premium tactile experience, whilst the textured circumference offers secure grip with its finely ridged surface pattern.
The knob's retro-inspired aesthetic makes it particularly well-suited to vintage synthesiser restorations, boutique amplifier builds, and custom audio equipment where visual character is as important as functionality. The tapered design not only provides visual appeal but also offers ergonomic benefits, allowing for comfortable finger placement during precise adjustments.

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.
