Sea-Dog Push Button Horn Switch 420416-1, Black, SPST Momentary On-Off, 15 Amp 12V Panel Mount
The Sea-Dog 420416-1 is a panel-mounted, momentary push button switch designed to operate fog horns, sirens, and similar signal devices aboard a boat. It uses an SPST momentary on-off action, so the circuit closes only while the black button is pressed, releasing back to off automatically. The switch mounts into a 1/2 inch diameter hole and is rated for a maximum panel thickness of 5/16 inch, making it a simple retrofit into an existing helm or console panel. Electrical connections are made via 1/4 inch QD (quick-disconnect) terminals for straightforward wiring without soldering. Construction is nylon/phenolic combined with chrome plated brass, giving the switch corrosion resistance for the marine environment while the chrome plated brass provides a durable, attractive finish at the panel face. It is rated 15 Amps at 12 Volts DC, suitable for typical 12V horn and siren circuits found on boats. The button on this part number is black; the same switch is also available with a bright red button under a different part number for easier visual identification in emergency situations. This switch is a universal accessory-style component rather than a vessel-specific part, so it fits any 12V DC panel with a compatible 1/2 inch mounting hole.
