This high-performance device is a versatile metal switch designed for reliability, specifically designed as a metal push button switch with integrated LED illumination—making it a premium LED metal push button ideal for industrial, automotive, and household equipment. Crafted from durable metal (typically brass or stainless steel), its robust housing ensures resistance to impact, corrosion, and wear, extending service life even in harsh operating environments. The 12V metal push button switch features a sleek black finish, achieved via electrophoretic coating or powder coating, which not only enhances aesthetic appeal but also 0ffers additional protection against fingerprints and scratches.

A key highlight is its latching (locking) mechanism: unlike momentary switches, this metal push button switch remains closed (conductive) once pressed, maintaining a continuous circuit until pressed again to disengage. This function is critical for applications requiring sustained power supply, such as equipment startup, emergency lighting activation, or control panel operations where accidental disconnection must be prevented.

As an LED metal push button, it incorporates a low-power, long-life LED light source that illuminates when the switch is closed (or customizable to light on open, based on wiring). The LED emits a bright, consistent glow—available in standard colors like red, green, or blue—enabling users to quickly identify the switch’s operational state (on/off) even in dimly lit spaces (e.g., machine cabins, dark utility rooms). The LED’s low energy consumption (typically <1W) and 50,000+ hour lifespan reduce maintenance needs compared to traditional incandescent indicators.

In terms of installation and compatibility, the metal switch is tailored for a standard 16mm mounting hole diameter—one of the most common sizes for panel-mounted switches—ensuring easy integration into existing control panels, junction boxes, or equipment enclosures without the need for custom drilling. It supports a wide voltage range: 12-24V DC (suitable for automotive, marine, or low-voltage industrial systems) and 110-230V AC (ideal for household appliances, commercial machinery, or mains-powered devices), making it a flexible solution across AC/DC applications.

Additional functional details include a rated current of 2-5A (depending on model), IP65/IP67 waterproof ratings (for dust and water resistance in outdoor or wet environments), and a tactile push response with clear feedback—preventing misoperations by ensuring users can feel when the switch engages. Overall, this metal push button switch balances durability, functionality, and visibility, making it a top choice for scenarios where performance and reliability are non-negotiable.
