SMD Metal Tactile Switch 5x5x5

The SMD Metal Tactile Switch 5x5x5 is a high-quality component specifically designed for professional game controller modifications. If you want to take your gaming experience to the next level, retrofitting paddles or additional buttons is a proven method. This robust switch forms the core of such modifications, ensuring precise actuation with every press.

Durability and Reliability

Unlike conventional plastic tactile switches, this model stands out due to its metallic construction. This guarantees long durability, even with intensive use in competitive gaming. The robust construction withstands constant actuation, which is unavoidable during quick reactions in shooters or racing games. You are investing in quality that will function reliably for years to come.

Optimized Design for Easy Installation

One of the biggest problems when modding controllers is the limited space inside the housing. Many standard tactile switches have bases that are too high, which can lead to tension or installation problems. The SMD Metal Tactile Switch 5x5x5 has a particularly flat base of only 1mm. This flat design prevents installation problems and ensures that the switch sits securely and flush in the circuit board or housing without exerting unnecessary pressure on the surrounding components.

Technical Data

For precise planning of your project, here are the exact dimensions of the tactile switch:

• Width: 5mm
• Length: 5mm
• Total Height: 5mm
• Base Height: 1mm (Flat Design)
• Pin Height: 4mm

Versatile Applications

Although the tactile switch was primarily designed for modifying controllers for paddles or buttons, its standard dimensions and SMD properties make it extremely versatile. Hobby electronics enthusiasts appreciate it for Arduino projects or other DIY electronics tinkering. The compact size of 5x5mm fits most standard layouts for tactile switches.

Scope of Delivery and Notes

Please note that the displayed price is per piece. The scope of delivery includes exactly 1x metal tactile switch for paddle modification (5mm height, as pictured). This allows you to order exactly the quantity you need for your individual mod – whether for a single paddle or a complete set of additional buttons.
