This is one item of single gang, linear taper, carbon track potentiometer available in the higher values of 2 MegOhm and 5 MegOhm. The higher pack quantity options are cheaper per item. These are new items and come with a nut and a washer for mounting on a front panel. The T18 splined shaft is 6mm diameter. The mounting hole required is 7mm diameter. The connection pins will allow either PCB mounting or soldered wire connections. The "B" prefix before the track resistance value denotes a linear track taper. The max power rating is 0.1W. The track tolerance is +/-20%.
The length of the turning part of the shaft is 8mm long. The threaded part of the shaft is 6mm long.
These higher value tracks are sometimes used in vintage audio compressor designs and guitar tone controls.
If you have a pot with a track label of B505, this is a B5M where 5 is the number of zeros after 50 in Ohms. Sometimes pots may also be labelled with the B as a suffix e.g. 5MB.
