replacement 5k pots for sega world series bats

[snakeGrave]

Hi All,
unfortunately the postal service had a some fun with the sega world series panel I just got.

Fortunately the only thing that was apparently damaged were the 5k pots affixed to the metal bats.

Shown in the images are the bats while before shipment.

It seems easy enough to source pots with proper dimensions, however I am curious if anyone can speak to whether or not there are other aspects that I should look for when seeking replacements?

They appear to have ~.25" diameter shaft that is ~ 1" long

I'm guessing the only other thing I need to look for is to be sure I get a single turn device?

Thanks much for any help

Make sure you get linear pots and not logarithmic ones.

As long as the shaft is somewhat similar, you should be good. In a pinch I have sometimes cut notches in them and even shortened them when I didn't have one that had a matching shaft.

Sounds good, I’m giving these a shot
