Product Type: Rocker

Rocker Switches

A rocker switch is an electrical on/off switch that rocks from one side to the other when pressed, leaving one side raised and the other depressed. This rocking mechanism will either connect or disconnect an electrical circuit. C&K’s selection of rocker switches includes subminiature, miniature, and power, providing an extensive range for printed circuit board through-hole, surface mount, and panel mount applications. Models are available in illuminated (LED and incandescent) and sealed/waterproof versions, with SPST, SPDT, DPST, DPDT, 3PDT, and 4DPT functionality. PCB mount options include vertical, right angle, and surface mount, while panel mount options include front mount, rear mount, and snap-in versions.

With multi-pole, multiposition functionality, C&K rocker switches can be used in a variety of applications. Options like a round shape, narrow width, rugged construction, beveled frames, recessed switch guards to prevent accidental actuation, splashproof rubber boots, and subminiature sizes for a space-saving small footprint make C&K the rocker switch provider of choice. C&K can support custom wire harness and actuator marking requests for qualifying designs in order to meet customers’ requirements and needs.
