Product Description

A compact, right‑angle tactile push button designed for horizontal, side actuation where top access is limited. The 6.0 × 6.0 mm body and 3‑pin layout simplify edge‑mount designs in remotes, audio gear, set‑top boxes, handheld instruments, toys, and small appliances. A crisp, short travel provides positive feedback while maintaining reliable electrical performance in high‑mix, cost‑sensitive assemblies.

Key features

  • Side‑actuated “side insert” structure for horizontal pressing
  • 6 × 6 mm footprint with 3‑pin SPST‑NO circuit
  • Through‑hole, right‑angle terminals for robust board retention
  • Short, tactile travel for fast, accurate inputs
  • Multiple operating forces available to tune feel
  • Long mechanical life for frequent use applications
  • RoHS/REACH compliant; halogen‑free options

Typical applications

  • Remote controls, set‑top boxes, soundbars
  • Portable instrumentation and meters
  • White goods control panels and small appliances
  • Toys, DIY electronics, smart modules
  • Automotive interior electronics (non‑safety, non‑critical)
