You will not find them because they are custom made especially for us
(minimum quantity 25000). We have to pay ~ US$ 0,50 in addition for the
special thread and shaft (i.e. in addition to the normal potentiometer
price). You may find similar ones (e.g. by Taiwan Alpha). But they will not
fit to our mechanical design because the thread and shaft of the standard
pots are too short to be combined with the miniature sockets.
