G15 Miniature Snap Action Micro Switch Series

G15 Micro Switch Series

Swiclick G15 is the mid-size micro switch family for appliance, equipment and control-board applications that need 6 A or 10 A switching at 125/250 VAC. Available configurations include SPDT and SPST-NO contacts, straight lever and bend-foot PCB versions, with exact ratings, terminals, force and temperature range defined by part number.

G15 at a Glance

Current class: selected 6 A and 10 A models at 125/250 VAC
Contact options: SPDT and SPST-NO depending on model
Mounting: PCB solder and right-angle bend-foot options
Applications: appliances, automotive modules, industrial controls and office equipment
Second source: suitable as a candidate family for selected incumbent miniature micro switches, subject to model-level qualification

Where G15 Fits in the Swiclick Micro Switch Range

G15 sits between the smaller G10 signal-level family and the higher-current G20 family. Choose the family by load, body size, actuator, terminal layout and life requirement rather than current rating alone.

G10

Signal-Level / Ultra-Miniature

For low-current sensing and compact mechanisms where body size and light force are the main constraints.

G15

6 A and 10 A Mid-Size Family

For appliance and equipment switching where a miniature body, PCB mounting and line-voltage load capability are needed.

G20

Higher-Current Basic Switch

For larger 16 A-class applications and heavier appliance or industrial loads.

Selection rule: Do not qualify a G15 part from the family name alone. Confirm the exact contact form, actuator, terminal style, load type, operating force, life, temperature range and required approvals for the specific part number.

Evaluating G15 for an Omron SS-10 Second Source

Swiclick uses the G15 family as a candidate starting point for selected SS-10 requirements, but the family name alone does not establish a direct replacement.

Confirm Before Selecting a Candidate

  • Complete Omron SS-10 model number and suffix
  • Contact form and terminal mapping
  • Actuator type and geometry
  • PCB footprint and terminal orientation
  • Electrical load and AC/DC duty
  • Operating force and travel
  • Mechanical and electrical life
  • Required approvals and temperature range

Use the Model-Specific Qualification Path

If your incumbent part is an Omron SS-10, review the SS-10 qualification page first. It explains the qualification boundary before you choose a G15 configuration.

How to Choose the Right G15 Model

Start with the requirements that cannot change in your design, then narrow the family by contact, load and mechanical interface.

1. Contact Form

Choose SPDT or SPST-NO according to the actual circuit. Do not infer contact mapping from body shape.

2. Load

Match voltage, current and load type. A 10 A resistive rating does not automatically mean the same capability on an inductive load.

3. Actuator

Confirm lever geometry, operating position, force, pretravel and overtravel against the real mechanism.

4. Terminal Layout

Check straight or right-angle PCB terminals, pin count, pitch and board orientation before releasing a footprint.

Have an Existing Micro Switch Part Number?

Send the current manufacturer, full part number, datasheet, annual quantity and application. Swiclick can compare the incumbent against the G15 family and identify the closest candidate and the remaining qualification work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Swiclick G15 series?

G15 is Swiclick’s mid-size snap-action micro switch family. Current published G15 product pages include selected 6 A and 10 A models for 125/250 VAC applications, with contact form, actuator and terminal configuration varying by part number.

Is every G15 switch rated the same?

No. Ratings, contact form, actuator, terminal layout, temperature range and life vary by part number. Always qualify the exact G15 model rather than the family name.

Does G15 include both SPDT and SPST models?

Yes. Current published examples include SPDT models such as G15-06SM01-40-01 and G15-10SM01-40-18, and an SPST-NO model, G15-10DN01-40-1209.

Can G15 be used as an alternative to Omron SS-10?

G15 can be evaluated as a candidate family for selected SS-10 requirements. The exact SS-10 suffix, actuator, contacts, terminals, load, force and life must be compared before approval.

Can I request samples before production qualification?

Yes. For suitable standard models, use the Swiclick contact page to request samples and submit the application requirements for review.
