6 Pin Rocker Switch 250V 16A DPDT On-Off-On

6 Pin Rocker Switch 250V 16A DPDT – On‑Off‑On, Panel Mount, Radial Leads

This 6-pin rocker switch supports up to 16A at 250VAC (also 20A at 125VAC) in a DPDT (double pole double throw) On‑Off‑On configuration. Built for reliable operation in industrial, automotive, and power management systems, the DPDT rocker enables control of two separate circuits simultaneously—for example in lighting panels, machine controls, and power supplies. While the exact brand may vary, typical variants meet UL94V‑0 safety ratings with nylon PA66 housing and silver‑plated terminals for enhanced conductivity and heat endurance. The switch’s snap-in mounting profile fits standard panel cut‑outs (~28 × 22 mm) and uses radial solder or tab terminal layout.

Its dual-voltage and amperage ratings reflect common use: 16A at 250VAC or 20A at 125VAC, giving safety margin depending on voltage environment. Many users report that 6-pin rocker switches of this format reliably support heavy switching loads in automation panels, marine electronics, and power tools. Reddit discussions confirm that such DPDT rocker switches offer flexible control options and match-of-load requirements across varied voltages and currents.
