The compact design and integrated mounting backet of these steering column switches mean they are ideal for direct installation on the steering column. They are used in agricultural and construction machinery to operate various functions such as indicators, wipers, headlights and for the horn. Various versions are available with rotatable grips, detent or no detent and up to three switching levels. With an operating temperature range of from -30°C to +80°C, and an IP67 protection class, they are robust and ideal for harsh environmental conditions.
