Description
The 6A 250V AC DPDT Rocker Switch is a professional-grade power and signal control solution designed for versatile electronic applications. Featuring a DPDT (Double-Pole, Double-Throw) configuration, this switch allows you to control two independent circuits simultaneously or toggle between two different power sources. Its snap-in tab design ensures a secure, tool-free installation into panel cut-outs, making it an excellent choice for robotics, automotive control panels, and custom electronics.
This ON-ON rocker switch is engineered for high reliability, with a dual rating of 6A at 250VAC and 10A at 125VAC. With a mechanical and electrical lifespan rated for up to 100,000 cycles, it is built to withstand frequent use in demanding environments. Whether you need to switch polarities for DC motors or manage dual-channel signals, this DPDT switch offers the durability and precision required for your next project.
