Open and close circuits in a snap—even in harsh conditions. With a rubber-encased housing and stainless steel bracket, these switches handle high vibrations and resist corrosion. They’re rated IP68 for protection from dust and temporary submersion. Because they open and close circuits faster than other switches—reducing the time that contacts are near one another—they prevent contacts from sticking. They also minimize the chance of arcing, so electricity won’t jump across contacts. They’re often used as door-open indicators on enclosures or as an internal component in limit, pressure, and temperature switches.
