Dual gang pot

Post by angelodp »

Is there such an animal as a dual gang pot that has a three click position on the back pot. Or is it a post with switch - three position.

Looking for alternatives for a midpot with cap switching capability. Three cap job.

You have to ask your self what can I afford.

If you can find a N. American manufacturer and have cash on hand for a
minimum run of xxx number of pieces..........

You might find some NOS tucked away, or something discontinued.

But you may need to get a manufacture, I saw a product called select a pot or
may be select a shaft ( no joke) that allowed the end consumer (no joke)
to define the product. You'll have to go down the Thomas net lists of manufacturers
and really dig. Unless some one has something immediately come to mind.

A lot of parts are tuff to get, If you can find something in a mil. spec
back catalog, the US GOV still contracts for spare parts.

other than that you need to gather the parts and assemble your self.

There are some industry posters who occasion the forum, may be they
have had experience with custom small runs for parts.

Allied carries product by "electroswitch", rotary with selectable number of positions.
They also make "separate section assemblies"
