Air Capacitors are designed specifically for RF applications, VHF through microwave, and have become the industry standard of excellence. High Q and temperature stability are a result of proper attention to geometry and choice of optimum materials. The heart of this trimmer is the one piece self-locking constant drive mechanism illustrated to the right. This mechanism utilizes transverse slots to create a spring effect between two threaded sections resulting in substantial contact areas which insure uniform torque, high Q and low dynamic tuning noise.
