Potentiometer with Spring Type Press Jockey
Product Code : JA-SI-8112
The Potentiometer with Spring Type Press Jockey (SKU JA-SI-8112) replaces the loose pencil jockey with a brass sliding jockey that runs on a metal rod. The jockey carries four single sharp pencil springs with separately loaded contacts, and an overlapping Perspex pointer helps read the raised scale. A pulley arrangement keeps the wires tight.
