A compact 7×7mm 6-pin push button switch, available in two actions. The Self-Locking (latching) version stays in place when pressed and releases on a second press, making it a perfect on/off power button. The Momentary version is active only while you hold it down, ideal for reset, mode and trigger buttons. Both share the same 6-pin DPDT layout for through-hole PCB mounting, switching two independent circuits at once.

Getting started

  1. Pick your action

    Self-Locking latches on and off with each press, which suits a power button. Momentary is on only while pressed, which suits reset and trigger buttons.

  2. Identify the pins

    It's a 6-pin DPDT, so two independent pole groups of three pins. Use a multimeter's continuity mode to confirm which pins switch together.

  3. Solder into your board

    Drop the pins through your PCB or perfboard holes and solder underneath. The standard DIP spacing fits common layouts.

  4. Drive the load with a relay or MOSFET

    At 0.1A 12V DC this is a signal-level switch. Use it to trigger a relay, MOSFET or a microcontroller input rather than carrying the load current itself.

Good to know: The contacts are rated 0.1A at 12V DC, so this is a signal-level switch. For motors, LED strips, heaters or anything mains powered, use it to drive a relay or MOSFET rather than switching the load directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions buyers ask most.

What's the difference between Self-Locking and Momentary?
Self-Locking (latching) stays in its pressed state. Press once for on, press again for off, so it holds without you holding it. Momentary is only active while you press it and springs back when released. Choose the action that suits your project above.
Why is there a 5-piece minimum?
These are small, low-cost parts, so we sell them in a minimum of 5 to keep the per-switch price low and shipping worthwhile. Set any quantity from 5 up and the price drops further at 10, 25, 50 and 100.
What current can it handle?
The contacts are rated 0.1A at 12V DC. That is signal level, so for motors, LED strips, heaters or anything mains powered, use this switch to trigger a relay or MOSFET rather than carrying the load current itself. Switching more than the rating will burn the contacts.
How many circuits can it switch?
It's a 6-pin DPDT switch, so it controls two independent circuits (two poles) at the same time. You can use one pole or both.
Is it PCB or panel mount?
It's a through-hole PCB switch with DIP pins, designed to solder straight onto a board or perfboard rather than mount through a panel cutout.
How long will it last?
Rated for 100,000 mechanical operations. Actuation force is 250gf, so it needs a deliberate press rather than a light tap.
Can I use it as a power button?
Yes, as a signal-level power button. The Self-Locking version holds its state without being held down, but at 0.1A 12V DC it should switch a relay or MOSFET rather than the supply itself on anything but the smallest loads.
How does this compare to the 5.8mm, 8x8mm and 8.5x8.5mm versions?
They are electrically identical and all 6-pin DPDT. Only the body footprint and cap colour change. The 7x7mm is the middle size with a blue cap, which suits most builds.

Why Buy from NZN

Useful parts, fair prices and someone local to help.

I'm Lukas, an engineering student and maker based in Te Awamutu. NZN grew out of a CNC build that dragged on for months because every missing cable, bolt or electronic part meant another overseas order. I started the shop so Kiwi makers can spend more time building and less time waiting for the next parcel.
