Miniature Snap-Acting Switches
Smaller than standard snap-acting switches, these switches trigger actions in tight spaces. They’re used in components as small as computer mice and engine restart switches. They open and close circuits faster than other switches, preventing contacts from sticking by reducing the time that they're near one another. These switches also minimize the chance of arcing, so electricity won’t jump across contacts.
Switches with a plunger actuator send a signal when the actuator is pushed directly downward. They have the smallest actuator of the actuators here, reducing the risk of accidental switching.
Switches with a lever actuator have a larger surface area than switches with a plunger actuator and can be pushed down by front-to-back movement, so they require less precision to activate.
Switches with a roller lever actuator combine the larger actuation area of a standard lever with a smooth gliding roller actuator. They minimize friction to limit wear and tear on your switch.
Switches with a simulated roller lever actuator have a curved arm that can be pressed down for actuation by forward, backward, and repeated back-and-forth movement.

Light-Touch Miniature Snap-Acting Switches
Smaller and more sensitive than standard snap-acting switches, these switches fit in tight spaces and actuate from light pressure. Snap-acting switches quickly open or close circuits to reduce arcing and keep contacts from sticking.
Switches with a plunger actuator require a push to activate, similar to a button.
Switches with a roller lever actuator use a lever with a roller at the end to activate. This allows parts to glide across the actuation surface with minimal friction, limiting wear and tear.
Switches with a simulated roller lever actuator have a curved arm that can be pressed down for actuation by forward, backward, and repeated back-and-forth movement.
Switches with an angled lever actuator have an arm with a tapered end. This creates an extra angle for actuation.
Switches with a paddle lever actuator actuate when material moves over the arm, which has the largest actuation area of our lever snap-acting switches. They’re often used in HVAC applications where airflow interacts with the paddle to actuate the switch.
