See the setting at a glance
The position groove gives you a reference as you turn the control. Align that reference with the panel scale during installation so the knob position corresponds to the setting range you want the user to read.
Components
KD1 Knob
A clear reference for your control position.
KD1 is a compact knob for D-shaft potentiometers, made from sintered nylon. Its narrow cylindrical shape and visible position groove suit compact control layouts where the setting needs to remain readable. Use it when planning a new panel or replacing knobs on a compatible shaft.
- D-shaft potentiometer fit
- Sintered nylon construction
- 10 mm diameter × 20 mm height

What makes KD1 Knob different
Plan a compact control layout
A 10 mm outside diameter and 20 mm height help when planning spacing around adjacent controls. Leave enough room for fingers and for the full rotation of the knob, rather than relying only on the outside diameter.
Match the shaft before fitting
KD1 is specified for a D-shaped potentiometer shaft. Compare the shaft profile and drawing dimensions before ordering or installing it; a D-shaft knob is not a universal fit for every round or splined control shaft.
Make it part of your setup
- Compare your potentiometer shaft profile and dimensions with the KD1 drawing.
- Align the D-flat and the position groove with the control orientation before fitting the knob.
- Check full rotation and clearance to neighbouring knobs and the panel surface.
