Threaded through dress nuts for use with mini toggle switches. Unlike the other versions of this dress nut, this nut is not capped allowing the nut to thread past the top of the switch’s bushing. The uncapped top can be useful where internal depth is an issue such as parallel PCB mounting. These plated dress nuts feature a chamfered edge for a professional look and work on any 1/4-40 UNS threaded bushing. Two sides are flatted for use with a tool when fastening.

Used in a variety of Fender amps. Replacement for Fender part number 0006260049

5W zener diodes that are great for use in tube amps. These are commonly used to drop B+ voltages for tube modification compatibility or to create low power modes for the amp. A zener is a semiconductor device that, above a certain reverse voltage(the zener value) has a sudden rise in current. If forward biased, the diode is an ordinary rectifier. When reverse biased, it exhibits a sharp break in its current-voltage graph. Voltage across the diode remains essentially constant for any further increase of reverse current.

Short trapezoid shaped Hammond enclosure. This style is reminiscent of vintage fuzz pedals. Screws included. Key Features:

• Rugged, diecast aluminum alloy (tough - yet easy to machine), electronic instrument enclosure.
• Lap joint construction provides protection against access of dust and splashing water. Also provides for improved EMI/RFI shielding.
• Four 6-32 x 1/2” machine screws secure lid - into factory tapped holes.
• Designed to meet IP54.
• Low side wall draft angle (2 degrees or less) for easy P.C. board mounting.

This nickel-plated brass adapter sleeve converts a 0.125 in. (3.17mm) shaft potentiometer to ¼" shaft (6.35mm), allowing for ¼" knobs to be used on a wider range of potentiometers. The cutout on the sleeve allows the set screw of the knob to secure directly to the shaft of the pot. Depending on the knob used, a longer set screw can be required.
