Series 16 Detented Power Switch, 8 Position,

10 Ampere Rating

Standard Series 16 switches are shown by circuit and part number. All examples listed are non-shorting (BBM) as designated by the letter "B" in the part number code. Shorting (MBB) is available and may be designated by changing the "B" to "M". For additional sections (10 maximum), change the last digit of the part number code to reflect the number of sections required. Other variances require unique part number assignments at the factory. We invite your inquiries regarding special applications and samples units are available at nominal costs. Shallco technical personnel are available to assist you in selecting the proper design for your project.
