Ultra-miniature size allows high density mounting and extremely light weight of 0.25 grams makes these switches ideal for handheld equipment.

Totally sealed body construction prevents contact contamination and allows time and money-saving automated soldering and washing. Award-winning STC contact mechanism with benefits unavailable in conventional mechanisms smooth, positive detent actuation, increased contact stability and unparalleled logic-level reliability. Tape-reel and stick-tube packaging allow rapid automated placement of surface mount devices.

Heat resistant resin used for housing, base, and actuator of SMD allows vapor phase and infrared reflow soldering. Molded-in, epoxy sealed terminals lock out flux, solvents and other contaminants. Gull-wing terminals on SMDs provide mechanical stability during soldering and simplified solder joint inspection.
