Flexswitch II
 

Flexswitch II is an upgrade replacement for lever-actuated, snap-action switches (wand, limit, or paddle types). It provides excellent sensitivity, and, due to the simplicity of its ribbon switch technology, is extremely reliable. Life expectancy is in the millions of actuations.

An integral mounting bracket simplifies installation, making Flexswitch II a time saving alternative to in-house switch fabrication or modification.
