Help sourcing rocker switch needed

[Nick Burnham]

Hi,

I wondered whether anyone had any suggestions for sourcing a rocker switch? Basically it is one to fill this blank that is needed so ideally as close a match to the one next to it. The dimensions are 40mm long, 16mm wide.

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Nick

Have a look on http://www.carlingtech.com/rocker-switches

If you cant get an exact match just buy 3 new switches

They look like the Carlings that have 40x16 switches in a 25x50 rectangle (approximately). By far the best thing to do as MK says is chuck them away and fit 3 x Carling Conturas with whichever style of actuator you prefer, the most modern being Contura 4. This way you can get rid of the 2 horrid push button things with the hex nuts showing.

You can buy the switches as stock items, or you can have the actuators custom engraved/backlit by Axoncomponents.com in Yorkshire, and also custom painted if you want

If you want something slightly bog standard (ie in black, not custom painted) PM me an address and I'll post you some FOC because I have a box of 50 or so leftover which I'm never going to use due to having them custom painted these days. You need to tell me the functionality of the 3 switches (SPDT and latching or non latching etc)

Heres a pic of bog standard Carling with stick on labelling

Here's a pic of custom made by Axon

Ah, that's perfect, thank you gentlemen!

JFM, you are a star, and a PM will be with you very shortly.
