Rotary/Ignition Switches: 3-Position

Originally designed for applications utilizing a gas-engine, the Delta rotary/ignition switches are now used in diverse applications, such as floor scrubbers, generators, welders and golf cars (utlizing a rotary switch knob). They are available with two, three, and four position rotations. They also offer a variety of standard circuit configurations with two to seven terminals but can be custom-designed for specific needs. Corrosion- and chemical-resistant materials extend switch life. The snap-in models have well-styled bezels that can be customized to match any panel. Heavy duty key retention is also an option. Keys can be over-molded to include your logo or other graphic. Email or call us at 330-626-2811 to enhance your products today.
