I needed a forklift part and wasn’t sure which one fit. They asked for the model and serial number, got back to me quickly, and made sure I ordered the right one. Really helpful.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this switch be used for constant on/off control without spring return? A: No, this switch is momentary only; it springs back to center-off when released. For latching on/off, you would need a different switch type.
Q: What wire gauge should I use with this 20A switch? A: Use at least 12 AWG wire for 20A loads to prevent overheating. Ensure proper fuse protection as well.
