Slide Switches
What are slide switches? Essentially, Slide switches are used to manage a level of current by sliding one way or the opposite direction to either turn ‘on’ or ‘off’ or a function. Commonly the slider switch is used to turn an electrical device ‘on’ or ‘off’, by making or breaking the circuit, the circuit can be interrupted by moving the switch.

PCB slide switches?
Our slide switches are PCB mounted. A PCB switch is a switch that is directly mounted onto a PCB (Printed Circuit Board). Surface mount PCB switches (SMD/SMT) are designed to sit flat, directly on top of a PCB. Through-hole or ‘thru-hole’ PCB switches are inserted into a drilled hole on the printed circuit boards and soldered to pads on the opposite side.
