SMD Silicone Waterproof Tact Switch
The tact switch has a variety of series,such as waterproof,surface mount and illuminated LED and other types,there has kinds of specifications for tact switch;
Description
The silicone waterproof tact switch is different with the metal dome structure of traditional waterproof tact switch,it uses the silicone pad substitutes the metal dome,so it called the silicone waterproof tact switch. It is a high-reliability electronic component engineered for precise control in harsh environments, integrating the advantages of SMT miniaturization, silicone sealing, and IP-rated protection. It serves as a core input device for electronic products requiring dustproof, waterproof, and durable operation, widely trusted in industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics fields.
Selling points
Adopts silicone rubber sealing structure to achieve IP67 protection rating, effectively blocking dust ingress and withstanding immersion in 1-meter deep water for 30 minutes . The silicone material's excellent elasticity ensures long-term sealing performance without deformation.
Designed for surface mount technology, it features compact dimensions (common sizes: 6x6mm, 12x12mm, 6.5x6.2mm) , compatible with automated reflow soldering and RoHS-compliant processes . Tape-and-reel packaging facilitates high-efficiency mass production.
The silicone rubber actuator provides soft and consistent pressing feel, with adjustable operating force (120±30gf to 305±153gf) to prevent misoperation . Clear tactile response confirms successful signal input, enhancing user experience.
Silicone material resists extreme temperatures, supporting an operating range of -40℃ to 85℃ (up to 90℃ for specific models) . Electrical life ranges from 50,000 to 300,000 cycles, ensuring long-term reliable use in high-frequency operation scenarios .
The SMD Silicone Waterproof Tact Switch is offering multiple height options (ranging from 4.3mm to 6.2mm and customizable on request) that are perfectly customized to fit diverse installation requirements across different application situation.
