Vandal Resistant Switches - Stainless Steel - Illuminated
Illuminated - Yellow Ring (3.3v), 16mm, Flat-Round, 2mm Solder-tabs (Stainless Steel Momentary Switch, Type A)
When only the best will do... The sleek, clean machined lines and lustrous stainless steel texture of the switches give a class to your case unmatched by any other switch on the market. Add to that, distinctive dot or ring illumination in a variety of colours and you have... the ultimate modder's switch.
The extensive range of 'vandal resistant switches' feature quality marine grade stainless steel construction (some models available in [Nickel] chrome-plated brass), come in two illumination styles in a variety of colours, three non-illuminated styles, and offer several different connection alternatives. The switches are very easy to install through simple 16mm diameter holes. Perfect for any chosen location on the modder's dream case.
The single-pole (OFF)-ON/(ON)-OFF (1NO1NC) switch configuration and separate LED terminals of these switches provide (OFF)-ON or (ON)-OFF switching alternatives. The 'latching' ON-OFF switch mechanism and 12v LED make them ideal for PC fan, light and other auxiliary device control.
Note that this is the 'Type A' version of the vandal resistant range which, have the following characteristics that are different to the standard switches in the range:
- hollow button instead of a solid machined button
- encapsulated 'dot' illumination
- thin 'ring' illumination
- 'latching On/Off' or 'momentary' options
