The GBC 24.0860.05 is an ON-OFF tact switch for direct PCB mounting. Its 6x6x5mm body and 4-pin through-hole layout suit control panels, consumer electronics, and prototype boards that need a momentary input with a slightly taller actuator than the 4.3mm variant.

The momentary (instant) switching action returns the circuit to OFF as soon as pressure is released. IP20 protection and a 4-pin base deliver mechanical stability alongside dependable electrical performance at low voltage.

Key Features

• Microbutton (tact) mode with instant momentary action — OFF-(ON)
• 4-pin PCB mounting for firm board attachment
• 6x6mm footprint with a 5mm height actuator
• Rated operating range: 0.05A – 12Vdc
• IP20 protection degree
• Black colour; 2 switching positions

Product Benefits

• 5mm height provides a slightly more prominent actuation point compared to shorter tact variants
• Momentary OFF-(ON) action closes the circuit only while pressed, preventing accidental latching
• 4-pin through-hole base anchors the switch body and reduces solder-joint fatigue
• 12Vdc rating suits microcontroller and logic-level circuits directly
• Standard 6x6mm footprint is compatible with common PCB footprint libraries
