Help finding this potentiometer

[joessportster]

Hey here's hopeing someone knows a distributer in the us where I can buy this. ( part number wxd3-12) it's for the bias on my amp. I'd like to either stick with the original or get 4 matching equilivant (possiably better quality). Plug the part number into google you get several hits but they are all in china and want you to order a minimum of 200 pcs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Joe

I would try to substitute it with a 5 or 10 turn wirewound pot which would give you much more stability and control.

Hello,

Give p3america.com a try. They stock thousands of potentiometers, typically sourced from Asian distributors. They are out of San Diego and I think they might have what you are looking for. I believe the one you are looking for, P/N WXD3-12, is listed as P/N CM1000, but you might want to double check as I am not sure of the specific characteristics.

I have included a link to the P/N CM1000 webpage. I hope this helps. If this isn't it, let me know. I have a friend who is an electronics engineer... we'll figure it out.

I agree with JJK, measure yours and match it up on digikey or mouser with the 10 turn pot

If you need some help take a picture, measure the leads and take an ohm measurement on the outside leads

Be more than happy to help

Hey Michael thanks for the lead but they don't carry wirewound pots. Joe
