TOGGLE SWITCHES
A toggle switch is an electrical switch that opens and closes an electrical circuit by moving a lever back and forth.
C&K’s large selection of toggle switches includes low voltage miniature, subminiature, and ultra-miniature models, on up to high power 10A versions. With printed circuit board, SMT and bushing options, C&K toggle switches feature vertical, right angle and vertical right angle mounting brackets.
Customizing Toggle Switches
No one offers more bushing options, actuator options, mounting bracket options, sealing options and circuits worldwide at this level of quality than C&K. By supporting custom wire harness requests for qualifying designs, C&K can customize its toggle switches to match customers' requests and needs.
