The alpha 16s and 24s have the same shaft diameter but take different size chassis holes. The 24s can be a pain to fit for some projects depending on enclosure size. I usually only use them on builds with one or two pots.

I bought several 24mm pots, but ended up buying 16's instead. They're just easier to work with in the enclosures. Unless I have a ton of free space in a future pedal I think the 24's are destined for prototypes only.
