SPDT Slide Switch(Pack of 5)
Introducing the SPDT Slide Switch (Pack of 5), a versatile electronic component designed to control electrical circuits with ease. This slide switch features a Single Pole, Double Throw (SPDT) configuration, allowing it to divert current between two conductors or circuits.
Equipped with six terminals, this SPDT switch enables you to control two separate circuits simultaneously using a single actuator. The switch offers flexibility in routing electrical signals, making it ideal for various applications.
The SPDT slide switch is equivalent to two Single Pole, Single Throw (SPST) switches combined into one, providing multiple routing options for your circuits. It can be used as an On/Off switch or for general-purpose switching tasks.
With its medium-sized design and two mounting holes, this switch is easy to install on circuit boards or enclosures. Additionally, it can be used to control the direction of a DC motor, adding to its versatility.
Commonly known as Switch Slide Mini SPDT, SPDT Slide Switch 3 Pin, Slide Switch – SPDT (3pin) On/On, 3 Pin Slide Switch, or 3 Pin SPDT Slide Switch, this multipurpose component is essential for electronics enthusiasts and professionals alike.
Upgrade your projects with the SPDT Slide Switch (Pack of 5), and experience reliable performance and convenience in circuit control.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I identify the common terminal?
The common terminal is the center pin on each side of the switch. When you slide the actuator, the center connection toggles between the two outer pins.
Can I use this switch for both signal and power switching?
Yes. It’s rated for 50 V and 0.5 A, making it suitable for low-voltage power routing and signal selection in electronics and hobby projects.
Is this switch easy to mount on a breadboard?
While the switch is compact, it may require soldering header pins or wiring adapters to fit standard breadboard spacing. It mounts directly on PCBs or panels with soldered leads.
