Overview

The TS40-66-70-R-160-SMT-TR is a surface-mount tactile switch featuring a 6.00mm x 6.00mm footprint and a vertical actuator height of 7.00mm. This SPST-NO (Normally Open) momentary switch is rated for 50mA at 12VDC and provides a tactile response with a 160gf actuation force. It uses a gull-wing termination style designed for standard SMT reflow soldering processes.

Why Choose This Part

The 7.00mm actuator height provides sufficient clearance for mounting behind thick enclosure panels without requiring specialized extensions. Its industry-standard 6x6mm footprint ensures compatibility with common PCB layouts, while the 160gf operating force offers a balanced, crisp tactile feel for the end user.
