Originally designed for demanding military vehicle applications, the J series switches are used as neutral safety switches and cab latch indicators for trucks (ensure safe latching after engine servicing). Both are under-body installations requiring complete sealing for resistance to the harshest environmental conditions.

These switches are also ideal for heavy industrial equipment applications that are subject to the same conditions. The switches are completely submersible and are unaffected by water, salt spray, humidity, dirt, dust, sand, icing, oil, shock and vibration.

Standard configurations are shown in this section. Variable parameters include: actuator size, terminations, mounting threads and lead length.
