Microswitches Miniature Microswitch Introduction Alcoswitch miniature microswitches are offered with many options to suit most typical applications. These switches are available in a current range from 16A to .1A. Additional options available throughout the different current ratings include: Pin Plunger Short, normal and long lever Short and normal roller Simulated lever SPDT, SPNO and SPNC circuitry Within the 16A range, in addition to two different terminal options, there are three different actuation force options. You can count on this offering of switches to be high reliability and low cost to fulfill your basic microswitch needs. Of course if you need something custom, we can offer that also.
