Product Description
A robust, through‑hole 12x12 mm tactile pushbutton designed for industrial control panels and PLC interface boards. The DIP construction delivers secure mechanical retention under vibration, while the crisp tactile feedback ensures confident actuation even with gloved hands. Engineered for long life, wide operating temperature, and reliable performance in harsh environments.
Key Features
- 12x12 mm compact footprint with through‑hole DIP terminals for secure mounting
- Positive, audible click with short travel for fast, repeatable actuation
- Multiple operating forces available (light to heavy) to suit different HMI needs
- Wide operating temperature range suitable for industrial environments
- Long mechanical life for high‑duty cycles
- Optional caps and actuator heights for panel aesthetics and ergonomics
- Lead‑free and RoHS compliant materials
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels and operator stations
- PLC input boards and I/O modules

Soldering & Assembly Guidelines
- Recommended process: wave soldering for through‑hole DIP
- Hand soldering: tip ≤350°C, dwell ≤3 seconds per terminal
- Do not exceed specified thermal profile; avoid repeated rework on the same pin
- Cleaning: use mild solvents; sealed versions required if board washing is necessary
- Keep flux out of the actuator; use soldering fixtures or masking as needed
Options & Accessories
- Actuator/cap colors and heights
- Operating force selections
- Gold‑plated contacts for low‑level signals
- Dust‑proof cap or semi‑sealed variants (availability depends on model)
- Custom pin lengths or bent leads for specific board thicknesses
Compliance & Quality
- RoHS and REACH compliant
- Halogen‑free options available
- 100% electrical and tactile feel inspection on request
- Traceable lot and date coding for industrial QA
Packaging
- Bulk bag or tube packaging for automated or manual insertion
- Tape‑and‑reel not typical for DIP; consult for special packaging
Notes
- Specifications shown are typical; please confirm exact parameters and options for the selected part number.
- For use in circuits exceeding the stated rating, employ a relay or driver stage.
