PUSH SWITCH / PUSH BUTTON SWITCH

Explore our comprehensive range of Push Switches and Push Button Switches at Tomson Electronics. Whether you are prototyping a new embedded system on a breadboard, repairing a household appliance, or designing a rugged industrial control panel, our selection provides the reliable electromechanical components you need to complete your circuit.

Push buttons are the foundational human-machine interface for nearly all electronic devices. Our collection spans from micro-sized PCB components to heavy-duty panel mount switches, ensuring you can find the exact voltage rating, actuation force, and form factor your project demands.

Types of Switches in this Collection:

• Tactile (Tact) Switches: The staple of DIY electronics and commercial PCBs. These compact switches (such as standard 6x6mm sizes with varying actuator heights) provide a distinct, satisfying "click" and are perfect for microcontroller reset buttons, matrix keypads, and breadboard prototyping.
• Momentary Push Buttons: These switches only remain closed (or open) while being actively pressed. They are ideal for trigger mechanisms, arcade controls, horn buttons, and digital input signals for Arduino or ESP32 projects.
• Latching Push Buttons: Also known as maintained switches, these toggle their state with each press (Push-ON, Push-OFF). They are typically used for main power routing, lighting control, and continuous state switching.
• Anti-Vandal & Metal Switches: Built for harsh environments, these heavy-duty metal buttons often feature IP65/IP67 waterproof ratings and integrated LED ring illumination. Perfect for outdoor enclosures, automotive dashboards, and high-traffic interactive kiosks.

Key Features to Consider:

When selecting the right push button for your application, consider the Switching Logic (Normally Open / NO vs. Normally Closed / NC) and the Pole/Throw configuration (SPST, SPDT, DPDT). Additionally, check the Mounting Style—we offer both through-hole DIP switches for printed circuit boards and threaded panel-mount switches for custom enclosures.
