Also known as high-inrush current switches, these switches can handle starting currents up to 10 times greater than their current rating, such as when a motor starts. They're often used with amplifiers, power supplies, and other high-starting-current devices.

Switches with an on-on position designation alternate power between sets of terminals.

Switches with a guard prevent accidental activation.

Rated IP67 for protection from dust and temporary submersion. Also known as high-inrush current switches, these switches can handle starting currents up to 10 times greater than their current rating, such as when a motor starts. They're often used with amplifiers, power supplies, and other high-starting-current devices. Easy to press, these switches have a wide, flat actuation area. Color-code your switches so that operators can identify their function at a glance.
