Product Overview

The SS-5GL13 is designed for mechanism end-position feedback, interlock confirmation, and contact-triggered control actions. Its snap-action behavior provides clear switching performance in repetitive operation. This switch is widely applied in industrial machinery, appliance-grade mechanisms, and automation fixtures where durable mechanical sensing is still preferred for specific motion interfaces.

FAQ for SS-5GL13

What applications use miniature basic switches?
Low-current switching: signal circuits, indicator circuits, low-power relays, consumer appliances, office equipment. Not for power switching.
What's the maximum current rating?
0.1A at 125VAC (resistive). For higher currents, use Z series basic switches (up to 15A) or power relays.
What's the advantage of simulated roller lever?
Smooth operation, reduced wear, consistent operating force. Simulated roller provides roller-like feel without actual rolling element.
Can I use this switch for safety applications?
No, SS series is not certified for safety applications. For safety interlocks, use D4 series safety switches with direct opening action.
