I have a pot that has a threaded shaft too short to comfortably grab with a hex nut on the faceplate
Is there a threaded sleeve with a hex or flat head that will reach through the panel and grab the thread on the pot?
The control shaft is plenty long.
Thanks

I looked through McMaster Carr but I didn't see anything really that matches what I think you're talking about. But that's where I'd start.

I don't know of any specific pieces for pots, but you might be able to find something if you know the thread specs. If you find the thread specs, then look for "barrel nuts" or "rivet nuts" or "weld nuts" and see if you can find the thread.

Going to really depend on the thread. Pots and switches always use some strange and rare thread pitches. |

thanks everyone so far. 8mm is the size. Is that the same as M8?
