Operate these switches hands-free when working in damp or humid environments. They’re IP and NEMA rated, so they won’t corrode when exposed to water, oil, or coolant spray.

Switches without a guard are unobstructed and let you press them from multiple angles. Switches with a guard shield the pedal so you don't accidentally step on it and activate the switch. Switches with an oversized guard fit bulky shoes and toe guards.

Two-speed switches have two contact points. Push the pedal halfway down for the slow speed or all the way down for the high speed.

Switches with a safety lever lock the pedal in place to prevent accidental activation. Fully insert your foot to release the safety lever. If the lever isn't released, the pedal won't depress.

Add an optional oversized guard to switches with or without a standard guard to shield the pedal from getting pressed by accident and to accommodate bulky shoes. Or, replace an existing oversized guard.

Safe to use near ignitable gases and dust, the housing on these switches seals in anything that could ignite flammable material. All are UL listed and CSA certified for use in hazardous locations. Yank the cable anywhere along your line to quickly cut power in emergencies. They have positive-force, snap-open contacts that open a circuit when actuated, even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. The contacts will remain open until you tension the cable and reset the switch. Use the tension indicator to visually confirm that they’re reset correctly.

Start or stop equipment after a set number of rotations to avoid over-rotation. For example, if attached to a crane spool, these switches will stop winding or unwinding cable after a certain number of rotations, preventing damage to equipment. Use their shaft to attach them to rotational equipment. They open and close circuits as fast as snap-acting switches.

Gear speed ratio determines when these switches actuate. A gear speed ratio of 5:1 means they actuate after 5 rotations.

Shorter and thinner than other safety limit switches, these are sized to fit tight spaces. They protect machinery and ensure the safety of personnel. Positive-force contacts open the circuit when actuated, even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. They send a signal to your circuit when an object hits the actuator—for instance, a box on a conveyor runs into the switch, stopping the conveyor. They open and close circuits as fast as snap-acting switches, but they have a bigger actuator for large objects. All are NEMA and IP rated for protection from washdowns.

Switches with a plunger actuator require a push to activate, similar to a button.

Switches with a roller plunger actuator have a roller that moves parallel to the mounting direction when an object pushes the actuator. This reduces friction during actuation to limit wear and tear.

Switches with a roller lever actuator use a lever with a roller at the end to activate. This allows parts to glide across the actuation surface with minimal friction, limiting wear and tear.

Switches with a rod actuator have a large actuation area with a rod extending out of the actuator’s body. They’re best where the object actuating the switch is far away.

Switches with a wobble stick actuator have an arm that rotates 360°, so you don’t need to align it in a specific direction. The actuator won’t snap if pushed backward, such as if there’s a jam in your system.

Styles E and F have an actuator that allows you to adjust its height, making it easier to align the switch with the target during installation.

NEMA 13 and IP67 rated switches are protected from oil/coolant spraying and temporary submersion.

Protect machinery and ensure the safety of personnel—these switches have positive-force contacts that will open the circuit when actuated even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. When an object in motion comes into contact with the actuator, it sends a signal to open or close a circuit. These switches have the rapid-closing action of a snap-acting switch, but with a larger actuator. This makes them a good choice for use with large objects—for instance, a box on a conveyor runs into the switch, stopping the conveyor.

Switches with a wobble stick actuator have an arm that rotates 360°, so you don’t need to align it in a specific direction. Since the actuator is flexible, it won’t snap if pushed backward. That makes these switches a great choice for systems that get jammed often.

Styles E, F, and G have an actuator that allows you to adjust its height, making it easier to align switch with the target during installation.

Switches with a steel actuator are more durable than switches with a plastic actuator. They also handle higher loads.

Switches with a plastic actuator limit wear and tear on passing objects better than switches with a steel actuator.

Protected by a steel enclosure, these switches withstand tougher conditions than switches in a plastic housing. Also known as safety switches, they have quick-make/quick-break action to eliminate arcing and prolong switch life. They have a lockout to secure in the off position using a padlock (not included).

Switches with safety interlock keep the door closed when the switch is on and prevent the switch from turning on when the door is open.

Switches with a fuse holder are used where overload protection is needed. When the current exceeds the fuse’s rating, the fuse will blow, interrupting the circuit to prevent the switch from overheating, breaking, or causing a fire. These switches require rejection-style fuse clips when used with UL Class RK1, RK5, or T fuses. Note: Horsepower ratings are based on time-delay fuses installed.
