Collins KW-1 Small Control Knob NOS in Excellent Condition #1

  These are NOS (New Old Stock) The white lines are in great shape. They were Likely made in the 1940s, Through the 1950s so they may not have the shine as when they were produced but they look great

 I have a limited supply of these knobs! 

Genuine New Old Stock small control knobs for the rare Collins KW-1 1000-watt transmitter. Black phenolic/Bakelite construction with brass insert.
  Available in both single set screw (This listing) and double set screw versions (In Another Listing) Both for standard ¼″ shafts.
 
These are the correct period-style knobs used on the secondary front-panel controls (excitation, bias, gain, etc.). Excellent NOS condition — ideal for authentic KW-1 restoration or as high-quality original replacements. Rare and hard-to-find parts for one of Collins’ most sought-after transmitters.
 
Collins KW-1 small control knobs (NOS, excellent condition)These are the smaller front-panel control knobs used on the rare Collins KW-1 1000-watt AM/CW transmitter (approximately 150 units produced in the early 1950s). They fit the secondary controls such as PA excitation, modulator bias, audio driver bias, clipping level, audio gain, filament voltage adjustment, overload relay adjustment, and similar functions. (The large main tuning and bandswitch knobs on the KW-1 were typically the bigger skirted Daka-Ware style.)Specs & Information
  • Style / Manufacturer: Original Collins / Daka-Ware (or period-equivalent) phenolic control knobs
  • Material: Black phenolic / Bakelite, usually with a brass insert
  • Shaft fit: Standard ¼″ round shaft
  • Fastening: Set-screw mounting — some have a single set screw, others have a double (dual) set screw configuration
  • Typical size: Small to medium (commonly in the roughly ¾″–1¼″ diameter range for control knobs; exact size varies by specific control position)
  • Features: Often include a white indicator line or pointer; some may be slightly skirted or have a ridged/fluted grip
  • Condition: NOS (New Old Stock), excellent — highly desirable because original KW-1 parts are scarce
  • Compatibility: Primarily for the Collins KW-1
These are period-correct original or NOS replacements that match the factory appearance and feel of the KW-1 panel.
