Add a clean, heavy-duty control to your enclosure or custom panel with this 16mm metal momentary pushbutton. The stainless steel body gives it a rugged, professional feel, while the blue illuminated LED ring provides a clear visual indicator or makes the button easier to find in low light.
This is an SPDT momentary switch, so it changes circuit state only while the button is pressed. It is suited to basic input functions, dashboards, workshop gear, interactive builds and other projects that need a tougher alternative to a plastic switch.
The button is designed for panel mounting with a 16mm threaded body and 1mm pitch, and it connects via small solder lugs on the rear for secure wiring. The IP65-rated front face helps protect against dust and water splashing such as rain.
Features:
- Stainless steel body: heavy-duty metal construction for a clean, rugged interface.
- SPDT momentary action: changes the circuit state only while pressed.
- Visual indicator: illuminated blue LED ring operates at 5V for status indication or visibility in the dark.
- IP65 waterproof rating: front face is highly protected against dust and water splashing, such as rain.
- Compact mounting: 16mm threaded body with 1mm pitch fits standard panel cutouts without taking up much enclosure space.
- Solder lug terminals: small solder lugs on the back support secure wiring.
