and also by some sites from your country - I think (similar sites than ebay).

The most guys from Germany have friends from Turkey in their aera and thus to buy there istn't a problem in most cases.

Please let us know such sites except
Ev Elektroni?i, Beyaz E?ya ve Elektirikli Ev Aletleri
- the ebay associated site

Thank you very much

The manufacturer from farnell and newark comes from Taiwan (SPS Technology). Multicom is farnell's brand name.
If I know the actually brand name from Taiwan, I can ask there about remake versions from SONY knobs.

nobody knows the manufacturer from Taiwan for Farnell's fluted knobs?

tiefbassuebertr · 2010-06-30 9:35 pm

I still want to know this manufacturer

I am still looking for a version mentioned by post #20

I use these or something very similar (look at my amp pictures) and like them a lot. For those in the US, Mouser has them too. They have a hex set screw but fit the Alps blue pot. Very nice quality.

am overwhelmed at looking at mouser. Not sure what the keywords I should be looking at it should simply fit into Alps grooved shaft without use of a screw... (I also have another with same size as Alps but with a grooved plastic shaft (so can't use a metal screw))

Is this the blue RK27 with a grooved/knurled shaft?!

Where did you get that. ALPS do not make them with knurled shaft as far as I know.

you r right, it is not Alps, but looking at the part the shaft is same length and diameter but is knurled, even worse it is plastic so can't use the screw.

Hi there,
Could you please recommend me a store who sells these kind of knobs please ?
thanks,

John Audio · 2011-10-26 8:42 pm

I think that the term you should use is SPLINED shaft (not grooved or knurled).

They are very common and 6mm in diameter, with lots of knobs available. They are sometimes known as 'push on' / 'fall off' knobs though!

tiefbassuebertr · 2013-12-26 9:49 pm

Knobs with Collet Fixing in "non-plastic" outline wanted

except the supplier about
MENTOR DATENBLATT
I don't find additional delivery sources for knobs in this kind.
Thank you for advices.

Any lathe guy can turn any knob you need, any shape and dimensions, including shaft hole, out of almost any metal, or nylon, or many plastics, or wood.

I went to a hobby/craft store that specialized in beads. There were all kinds of different styles from which to choose. I picked up some wooden knobs with the intention of drilling the hole to the appropriate size.
Just a thought...
Mike

e-waste management setups for used knobs and heat sinks.
Decorative knobs for drawers and cupboards. But it and then drill a hole and use them Im looking at some mother of pearl drawer knobs right now.
Wood is another Idea.
Also it should be possible to spin up that pot on a baby lathe and cut the shaft dia down to 6mm.

Knobs!
