Unique-Bargains RV097NS 5K ohm carbon film potentiometer 10pcs

SKU CH-W7ER-QSVPP MPN RV097NS

Pack of ten 5K ohm carbon film potentiometers with single-turn linear taper, 5 terminals and 6 mm knurled split shafts for push-on knobs

  • FeaturesHorizontal Multiturn Trimmer Potentiometers; Potentiometer R
  • 10-piece pack simplifies stocking for multiple projects
  • 5K ohm carbon film element delivers linear resistance control
  • Single-turn 6 mm knurled shaft fits standard push-on knobs
  • Five terminals support switched or dual-circuit wiring
  • Compact 27 x 9 x 11 mm body fits tight breadboard layouts

5K Ohm Carbon Film Potentiometer Pack

This pack contains ten RV097NS carbon film potentiometers rated at 5K ohm with a tolerance of ±10%. Each unit is a single-turn rotary variable resistor featuring five terminals and a linear taper suitable for standard knob mounting. They are supplied new without knobs included.

Suits Hobbyists And Prototyping; Not For High Power

These components suit hobbyists, students and engineers building or repairing audio volume controls, sensor circuits or breadboard prototypes where a compact 27mm x 9mm x 11mm footprint is needed. They are not for applications requiring multi-turn precision, high power dissipation or sealed environmental protection.

Check Shaft Fit And Mounting Clearance

Verify that your panel or PCB can accommodate the 6.7mm screw thread diameter and the 6mm knurled shaft which extends 10mm beyond the thread. Ensure the 5-terminal pin spacing matches your board layout and that the single-turn travel meets your adjustment resolution needs.

Questions about this item

Does this potentiometer include a knob or do I need to supply one separately?

The shaft is knurled with a split design for push-on knobs, but the package contains only the 10 potentiometers — no knobs are included.

Will the 6.7 mm thread and 6 mm shaft fit the mounting holes on my existing front panel?

The threaded bushing is 6.7 mm in diameter and the shaft is 6 mm, so compare those dimensions with your panel cut-out before installing.

How can I verify the 5 kΩ value and ±10 % tolerance after soldering it to my board?

Measure resistance between the two outer terminals with a multimeter; a reading between 4.5 kΩ and 5.5 kΩ confirms the part is within specification.
