Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- IP65 Waterproof & Dustproof: Flame-retardant ABS housing with an integrated soft rubber sealing layer blocks water splash, dust, and moisture from entering the internal circuit — protecting against short-circuit failures in demanding automotive environments and extending the switch's service life.
- Pre-Wired for Fast Installation: High-purity oxygen-free copper core wire with a PVC insulated outer layer and pre-stripped wire ends ensure stable, low-loss electrical conductivity. No extra wire-stripping needed — ideal for both professional installers and DIY enthusiasts.
- Durable Latching Mechanism: A high-resilience copper contact spring locks the circuit ON with one press and OFF with a second press, providing satisfying tactile feedback. Rated for over 50,000 press cycles for long-term, dependable switching performance.
- UL94 V0 Flame-Retardant Shell: The ABS housing meets UL94 V0 flame-retardant grade and operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, handling even the most demanding underdash or engine-adjacent conditions safely.
- Universal Panel Mount Compatibility: Standard 4-hole fixed ABS base with a common cutout size fits most automotive panel mounting holes — compatible with cars, electric vehicles, modification builds, and small household appliances.
