This is a single pole, 10 position rotary switch able to select up to 10 different states in a durable package. Unlike our other rotary switch, this model is much more robust and capable of handling larger currents and voltages. You may find this rotary switch familiar, it’s the same one we trusted in our Decade Resistance Box!
With a max voltage rating of 125VAC at 0.3A and a dielectric strength of 250VAC for 1 minute this is a serious little rotary switch capable of working with some of your bigger projects. Though this switch requires you to use 11 pins and is not breadboard friendly we do offer a breakout board (found in the Recommended Products section below) to provide easier access to its capabilities.
Includes:
- 1x Rotary Switch - 10 Position
- 1x Hex Nut
- 2x Washer
Features:
- Rating: 0.3A/125VAC
- Contact Resistance: 50mΩ max
- Insulation Resistance: 100MΩ @ 500VDC min
- Dielectric Strength: 250VAC for 1 minute
- Rotation torque: 1.0+0.5KG/cm
- Shaft: 3/8"

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout is a small circuit board that makes a tiny or hard-to-solder component easier to connect to with standard pins. It matters because this OLED module can be wired into a microcontroller project without needing to solder directly to the display’s fine contacts.
- Torque
- A twisting force that causes something to rotate, usually measured in newton-metres or kilogram-centimetres. It matters when choosing motors, servos, gears, and tools because higher torque is needed to lift heavier loads, turn larger wheels, or move mechanisms without stalling.
