New toggle switches by Switch Components

Switch Components is an American company which specialises in the manufacture of a wide range of switches and buttons. In recent weeks, these products have been introduced to the TME catalogue and are available directly from our warehouses. Now, we are pleased to present the following types of switches by Switch Components: toggle switches, pushbutton switches, vandal-resistant switches and rocker switches. You can now order them from our website.

We would like to draw your special attention to toggle switches, which represent a significant part of the manufacturer’s specialist product range. They are divided into several product series. The switches feature DPDT, DPST, SPDT or SPST contact configuration. Depending on the model, their load capacity ranges from 6 A to 50 A DC and from 6 A to 20 A AC. This means that they can be successfully used for switching high loads, such as in industrial automation devices (voltages up to 14 V DC and 125 V AC). The products are available in 2- or 3-position versions. The number of stable positions depends on the model; the manufacturer offers, among other things, instantaneous variants (1 stable position). Their actuation force ranges from 8N to 18N, which facilitates smooth operation and, at the same time, reduces the risk of changing the toggle position accidentally.

The Switch Components described here are designed to meet, in terms of parameters, the requirements of the automotive, marine or general industry. For this reason, they boast a wide thermal tolerance (the products can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C). Moreover, variants with various lead-outs are available (4.8 mm, 6.3 mm connectors; screw terminals; pre-installed wires).
