Mini Toggle Switch ON-OFF-ON SPDT — 2/3 Position, 2–6 Pin, Latching & Momentary

Pin count determines how many circuit connections the switch makes. A 2-pin switch handles a single circuit (on/off), while 3-pin and 6-pin SPDT switches let you route current between two outputs. Positions refer to the number of switch states: 2-position gives you ON-OFF, while 3-position gives ON-OFF-ON. Count the terminals on your existing switch or consult your wiring diagram to match correctly. When in doubt, a 6-pin 3-position variant is generally the most versatile for SPDT applications.

A latching (maintained) switch stays in position after you release it — ideal for power on/off controls, light switches, and any application where you need a persistent state. A momentary switch returns to its default position as soon as you let go — typically used for horn buttons, reset triggers, or pulse signals in automotive and marine wiring. Choose based on whether you need a persistent state or a brief activation.

These switches are generally rated up to 240V AC. Current capacity typically ranges from 3A to 6A depending on the specific variant selected. Always verify the rating printed on the switch body against your circuit requirements before installation. For high-current loads, contact us to confirm the appropriate variant.

These mini toggle switches are commonly used in marine (boat) dashboard panels and are well-suited for enclosed panel environments. However, the standard version is not fully waterproof. For outdoor or wet environments, we recommend pairing with a protective rubber boot cover or selecting a sealed variant. Contact us to confirm IP rating details for your specific use case.

Mini toggle switches in this style typically require a panel cutout of approximately 6mm (≈15/64") in diameter. The threaded bushing, mounting nut, and washer are generally included. Confirm the exact bushing diameter from the product images or contact us before drilling your panel to avoid misfit.

Yes. These switches are well-suited for 12V DC applications including car dashboards, boat control panels, RV electrical systems, and custom automotive builds. They are rated for both AC and DC circuits, though always verify the DC current rating matches your load before wiring. They are a popular choice for marine toggle switch panels and custom car interior builds.

An SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switch has one common terminal and two output terminals. Connect your power source to the common (center) terminal, then connect each output terminal to the device or circuit you want to switch between. For ON-OFF-ON configurations, the center position disconnects both outputs. Always refer to a wiring diagram specific to your application, and ensure power is off before making connections.
