    That was many many years ago, so I can't recall the supplier, but they must be the correct size for the shaft size of the pot, in my case the Hall sensor had a 1/4" shaft and I used a 8mm bolt tapped to the shaft, so was 8mm that end.

    How about this side (the keyed tube/keyway)? Was this something machined?

    i had the similar problem, there is no shop for finished rings like this, they have to be individually ordered by some metal processing company .. but this will be relative expensive ...

    so i just ordered normal adjusting rings with grub screws and screw it into the axis groove.
