This 30mm translucent red arcade button features a crystal-clear glossy finish and smooth button action. A pre-installed micro-switch with gold-plated contacts provides a satisfying press with tactile feedback — no strong click, just a clean, definite feel.
Shorter than standard cheap arcade buttons and designed to snap into place, these only need 38mm (1.5") of depth behind the panel — or just 32mm (1.25") if you bend the contacts over. The translucent body is ready to be illuminated with a diffused LED for a custom backlit look.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
