Standard Metal Domes

Home  >  Products  >  Standard Metal Domes

Tactile metal domes are momentary switch contacts that become normally open switches when used with a printed circuit board, flex circuit, or membrane. They are placed on printed circuit boards through pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, captured in a pocket design, or directly soldered to the circuit in a standard SMT process.

In their relaxed state, tactile metal domes rest on the outer rim of the primary pathway. When pushed, they collapse and make contact with the secondary path, thereby closing the circuit. Many different shapes and actuation forces are available to fit your specific application. You can use them as mechanical switches, electrical contacts, tactile elements only, or both electrical and tactile. Contact us today to purchase our tactile metal domes.

Stat Designing
RCG-Series

RCG-Series

The RCG dome provides a circular contact surface area which helps reduce impact from contamination, debris, or off-centered actuation.
S-Series

S-Series

Snaptron's latest metal dome switch allows you to solder the dome directly to the circuit board
SQ-Series

SQ-Series

SQ-Series domes are specified for 10 million cycles, the highest life rating in the industry.
F-Series

F-Series

F-Series domes have 4 legs and can achieve high actuation forces and tactile relative to their size.
DT-Series

DT-Series

Now with a new dual-action feature! The DT domes, also known as "dual-touch" domes, detect two levels of force. The new feature, called "Continuous Dual-Touch," maintains two separate electrical contacts through two actuations.
GX-Series

GX-Series

The GX-Series domes can achieve high force ratings compared to other four-legged domes.
NC-Series

NC-Series

The NC-Series, is a normally-closed single pole double throw (SPDT) tactile dome switch.
BL-Series

BL-Series

BL-Series domes have 4 legs and were devised for applications that require a back-lit switch with crisp tactile feedback.
WT-Series

WT-Series

WT-Series domes offer a high actuation force in a relatively small dome while maintaining extensive actuation life.
TC-Series

TC-Series

TC-Series domes feature a new, innovative design with a reverse dimple on the top of the dome that serves as a built in actuator.
RK-Series

RK-Series

RK-Series domes have a feel similar to that of the round domes, featuring a “soft” tactile feel.
P-Series

P-Series

P-Series domes have a “softer” click, or a less definitive feel, than the 4-leg domes.
U-Series

U-Series

U-Series, or Ultra-Snap tactile domes have the highest tactile ratio of any of Snaptron’s domes.
M-Series

M-Series

M-Series domes are similar to our P-series with one exception, they are designed to be pushed past flat by .005”.
