Description
The TVBM17 Tact Switch (MPN: TVBM17) is a high-reliability vertical push switch designed specifically for surface-mount technology (SMT) applications where environmental resilience is required. With a compact 6.1×3.7mm footprint, this switch is engineered to fit into modern, space-constrained electronic devices while providing a sharp, precise tactile sensation for clear user feedback.
To ensure long-term functionality, the TVBM17 features a dust-proof, contact-sealed structure, making it highly resilient against environmental contaminants that can cause switch failure in less robust components. Designed for efficient manufacturing, the switch incorporates a larger top stem surface to improve pick-and-place mounting speed and is fully reflow solderable. Whether integrated into office equipment, audio gear, or portable electronics, the TVBM17 offers the durability and performance needed for professional-grade hardware design.
