Toggle & Rocker Switches

1. I need a refresher course on Single Pole/Double Pole and Single Throw/Double throw.

   Check out the SPST/DPST Page...

2. Can I replace the bulb in any of your toggle or rocker switches?

   The bulbs are wired inside the switch and therefore cannot be replaced. We use a long lasting bulb so that the need for bulb replacement is unlikely in a normal automotive application. We also have LED switches such as 58312 Series that never need replacement.

3. Can I use your non-lighted toggle or rocker switches in 110V AC applications?

   Except for switches M-493, 5507 and similar switches, none of our switches are officially rated for AC voltage application. While we are confident some of them can, it is totally up to the end user to determine their suitability for such application.

4. Can I use your lighted rocker and toggle switches at 110V AC?

   No. The lamps inside the switches have specific voltage ratings.

5. Can I use your lighted rocker and toggle switches at 24V DC?

   You need to select only the ones rated for 24V, because the lights function only at the designed voltage.

6. Can I use your non-lighted toggle and rocker switches at 24V DC?

   Yes. If they are rated at 12V, you must reduce the amp rating by half to obtain the same durability.

7. Can I get any of your toggle or rocker switches modified to meet my special application?

   Yes, in most cases. It is possible we make a suitable item already that isn't listed because of its specialized use. Alternatively, we can make it for you. Naturally we have a minimum quantity requirement for special orders.

8. Do your lighted toggle or rocker switches have incandescent or LED lamps?

   We have both. Contact us if you need a special order with LEDS.

9. Can I have my company's imprinting placed on a rocker switch?

   Yes. Contact us. If it's a standard legend or SAE symbol, there's a chance that it's already available.
