Latching Flat Push Button Switch Head

The ACXION Latching Flat Push Button Switch Head pairs with contact blocks and a mounting frame to form a complete latching push button switch. The flat profile is the preferred choice when panel appearance matters — rows of flat buttons give a uniform, professional look that raised or illuminated heads cannot match. Without an LED circuit to wire, assembly is faster and there are fewer components to source. The head locks in position on the first press and releases on the second, maintaining the selected state without any additional holding mechanism. Anti-rotation boss included. IP65 as standard, extendable to IP66. Factory-direct from ACXION, Jiangsu, China.

FAQ:

Q1: When is a flat head preferable over a raised head?
Flat heads are preferred when the panel has multiple buttons in close proximity — the flush surface reduces the chance of accidentally pressing the wrong button. They also give a more uniform panel appearance, which matters for equipment sold to end users who care about finish quality.

Q2: Do I need a separate indicator light if I use this non-illuminated head?
Not necessarily — it depends on your panel design. If the operator only needs to know the button state occasionally, a label or color coding may be sufficient. If continuous status visibility is important, adding a separate indicator light next to the button or using the illuminated flat head version is the better choice.

Q3: How do I select the right contact block to pair with this head?
The most common pairing is 1NO1NC — one normally open and one normally closed contact — which covers most start/stop and on/off applications. If your circuit needs more contacts, additional contact blocks can be stacked. Contact us with your wiring diagram and we can recommend the right contact block configuration.

Q4: What is the minimum order quantity for bulk pricing?
