This 6-pin miniature toggle switch is a high-performance component designed for complex circuit management in space-constrained applications. With its Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) configuration and a stable Center-OFF position, this switch allows you to control two independent circuits simultaneously or easily reverse the polarity of DC motors.
Compact Form Factor: Features a precision-engineered base measuring 13.10mm x 12.60mm, making it ideal for dense PCB layouts and small control panels.
3-Position ON-OFF-ON Logic: Provides three maintained positions, including a center-neutral "OFF" that completely isolates both connected circuits.
DPDT Versatility: Six terminal pins allow for sophisticated wiring setups, such as switching between two different power sources for two different loads at once.
Professional Metal Bat Handle: The classic chrome-plated toggle lever provides a crisp, tactile "click" and is built for long-term mechanical durability.
High-Heat Resistant Base: The vibrant blue thermoset housing is designed to withstand standard soldering temperatures without compromising the internal contact alignment.
Motor Control: The industry standard for Forward-Stop-Reverse control in small robotics and motorized hobby projects.
Audio & Instrument Repair: Used in guitars and amplifiers for coil splitting, phase switching, or source selection.
Industrial Panel Mounts: Perfect for low-voltage control panels in machinery where dual-line safety isolation is required.
Dimensions: 13.10mm (L) x 12.60mm (W).
Type: Miniature Toggle Switch (DPDT).
Switching Action: ON-OFF-ON (Maintained).
Terminal Type: 6 x Solder Lugs.
Hardware Included: 2 x Hex Nuts, 1 x Flat Washer, 1 x Locking Washer.
Can I use this to reverse a 12V DC motor?
Absolutely. This 6-pin DPDT switch is the perfect choice for motor reversing. By "criss-crossing" the wiring on the outer pins, you can toggle the motor's direction with the flick of a lever.
Does it stay in the "OFF" position?
Yes. This is a maintained (latching) switch. It will stay in the Left, Center (OFF), or Right position until you manually move it again.
Is the mounting hardware standard?
Yes, it includes a standard threaded bushing with all necessary nuts and washers for a secure, anti-rotation mount on any panel up to approximately 4mm thick.
