Apem Dualmec 6C Tactile Switches
Apem Dualmec 6C Tactile Switches are compact and reliable tactile devices designed to enhance the safety of handheld or space-constrained device applications. As the smallest 2-pole SMD component, this switch optimizes space utilization. The inclusion of positioning pins ensures precise placement, simplifying the alignment of the front panel and PCB, thanks to the floating caps. These switches offer a satisfying tactile feel, with various design options provided within the standard cap selection. These switches are commonly used in transport systems, special vehicles, agricultural vehicles, process controls, and professional electrical appliances
