Product Description MTS-202 Miniature DPDT Toggle Switch (2-Position ON-ON) Add reliable, compact control to your electrical builds with this premium Miniature 6-Pin Toggle Switch. Featuring a durable blue polymer body, a solid nickel-plated metal lever, and an integrated threaded mounting collar, this switch is engineered to deliver crisp, snap-action toggling in space-constrained layouts. Utilizing a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) internal contact scheme across 6 pin terminals, it allows you to govern two entirely separate electrical lines simultaneously with a single flick of the lever. The latching mechanism clicks firmly into either side position, providing a continuous, vibration-resistant connection that eliminates contact floating. Key Features Simultaneous Dual Control (DPDT): Electronically isolates and switches two independent circuits at the exact same time, perfect for phase-shifting or dual-rail power routing. 2-Position Latching (ON-ON): Stays firmly locked in your chosen position without spring-backs until manually toggled. Compact Instrument Panel Fit: Fits perfectly into small 6mm ( 4 1 -inch) mounting holes, making it an excellent choice for crowded control faceplates. Vibration-Proof Hardware: Comes pre-packaged with a classic flat alignment locking washer, an internal star washer, and dual hex nuts to guarantee a twist-free installation. Technical Specifications & Family Variations Electrical Ratings AC Capacity: 3A at 250V AC / 6A at 125V AC DC Capacity: Widely trusted for low-voltage electronics (typically rated up to 5A–10A at 12V–24V DC). Compatible MTS Series Variations The blue miniature switch family shares the exact same physical body footprint and 6mm panel cutout, making it simple to substitute models depending on your specific circuit requirements: MTS-202 (This Model): 6-Pin DPDT — 2-Position maintained (ON-ON). MTS-203: 6-Pin DPDT — 3-Position maintained (ON-OFF-ON). Adds a definitive center-OFF position to isolate both outputs. MTS-102 / MTS-103: The 3-pin single-pole (SPDT) counterparts that halve the terminal width for single-line switching requirements. Momentary (Spring-Return) Variants: Labeled as (ON)-ON or (ON)-OFF-(ON), these switches feature an internal spring that snaps the lever back to its rest state the moment it is released. Product & System Compatibility This miniature toggle switch is a global baseline component across consumer, prototyping, and musical electronics: Audio & Instrument Modding: Highly compatible with electric guitars and bass wiring bays (frequently utilized for pickup coil-splitting, series/parallel switching, or active/passive preamp bypasses). DC Motor Polarity Reversal: Thanks to its 6-pin DPDT array, it can be easily cross-wired (X-pattern) to instantly alternate the Forward/Reverse direction of small hobby DC motors or linear actuators. Developer & DIY Electronics: Integrates seamlessly into Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and breadboard prototyping systems for toggling logic inputs, altering audio signals, or switching secondary battery reserves. Weatherproof Accessories: Fully compatible with mini M6 rubber waterproof boot caps, which can be screwed onto the exterior thread to protect the lever assembly against splashing water and dust intrusion. Wiring Terminals: Rear solder-lug terminals are fully compatible with direct wire soldering or mini 2.8mm insulated female crimp quick-connect terminals.
