Surface and material

According to requirements and fields of application the switches and keypads are available with various housing materials.

The ideal material for rough environments is high quality stainless steel* with resistant surface. Especially for piezo switches, aluminium or flameproof unbreakable plastic versions are available.

For the mechanical switches, SCHURTER offers housings made of aluminium or diecasted zinc with nickel-plated surface in addition to stainless steel.

For external applications we certainly recommend resistant materials such as stainless steel or aluminum. An additional finish for the keypads is possible with a glass-bead coating.

* Stainless steel surfaces may have slight differences in colour as a result of different batches of preliminary materials.

The surfaces of the input systems can be finished according to customer requirements.

Varnishing of switches and keypads in various signal colours is possible. Additional inscriptions are sealed by transparent lacquer. The aluminium housings of the switches can be delivered in various anodised colours. Colouring of the switches using powder coating is available on request.
