C&K Illuminated Switches

C&K Components offers more than 55,000 unique part numbers that are built, priced and delivered as standard catalog items.

Key features and benefits to C&K's illuminated switches:

  • LED terminals are independent of the switching mechanism which allows more flexibility when designing
  • LED can be illuminated in the up or normally open position or have the LED light up when the switch is depressed or in the normally closed position
  • LED can also be wired to blink to draw attention from a user that it needs to be depressed in a specific application or situation
