Heavy-Duty Limit Switches:

The switch is on. Honeywell's snap-action basic switch is simple, superior, durable, and irreplaceable. Globally compliant and known worldwide for their compact and lightweight design, MICRO SWITCH snap action switches are designed for accurate repeatability and extended life. MICRO SWITCH Basic switches are designed for presence and absence detection where physical contact with an object is permissible. They also excel in applications requiring simple on and off actions.
