Compact conductive‑plastic linear potentiometer giving 100 mm absolute position feedback with infinite resolution. Runs from 5 V DC (ratiometric) and delivers a smooth 0‑100 % span on the wiper pin. Precision is excellent—±0.05 % FS linearity, 0.01 mm repeatability—and the sensor survives >100 million strokes. The anodised‑aluminium body, stainless‑steel pull‑rod with ball joint, and IP65 sealing suit harsh industrial or lab environments (‑55 … +125 °C, 20 g vibration, 50 g shock). Mounts easily via two sliding brackets and DIN 43650 4‑pin connector. Ideal for robotics axes, 3‑D‑printer beds, automation jigs, and general displacement measurement where compact size and long life matter.
