Switch Snap Action Micro – RA20323-02

A snap-action mechanism gives this Raymond microswitch a crisp, repeatable make-and-break at a precise actuation point, the behavior a control circuit needs to register a position or limit reliably. The internal spring snaps the contacts over center rather than easing them closed, which keeps switching fast and consistent even when the actuator moves slowly.

Raymond uses microswitches like this throughout a lift truck for interlocks, limit sensing, and control inputs, where the switch has to signal the same way on every cycle across millions of operations. When contacts pit or the snap mechanism weakens, the switch may chatter, stick, or stop registering, and the function it controls turns unreliable. As a Raymond original, it matches the actuator style and mounting the assembly was designed around.
