Ultra-Thin Pushbuttons
Series GB2
Distinctive Characteristics
Unique, off-center actuator allows high density setup and easy
actuation while avoiding accidental operation in compact
environments.
Side-by-side, block mounting can be achieved by use of
bracket AT546 on straight PC mounting types.
Off-Momentary On Circuit.
Black, white, and red snap-on caps available.
Extremely thin size allows high density PCB
mounting and makes these switches ideal for
handheld equipment.
Award-winning STC contact mechanism with
benefits unavailable in conventional mech-
anisms: smoother, positive detent actuation,
increased contact stability and unparalleled
logic-level reliability. (Additional STC details
in Terms & Acronyms; see Supplement section.)
Molded-in, epoxy sealed terminals lock out flux and other
contaminants.
.100” x .100” (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal spacing conforms to
standard PC board grid spacing for straight and angle mounting.

Standards & Certifications
Flammability Standards:
UL Recognition
or CSA Certification:
UL94V-0 actuator, case, & base
The GB2 Series pushbuttons have not been tested for UL recognition or CSA certification.
These switches are designed for use in a low-voltage, low-current, logic-level circuit.
When used as intended in a logic-level circuit, the results do not produce hazardous energy.
