The Tamiya 5A Micro Switch is a compact, easy-to-use component suited to model making, club workshops, and classroom experiments. Its reliable mechanical action makes it a go-to for simple circuit control.
With a 5 ampere rating the switch is appropriate for many low-voltage applications in small robots and devices. Its slim profile helps when space is limited and it pairs well with standard hobby wiring and brackets.
The switch is useful for teaching basic electronics, switching small loads like lights and motors, and creating physical inputs for simple programmes or circuits.
In mechanical systems the switch can act as a limit stop or a bump detector, offering predictable behaviour useful for repeatable control tasks in models and robots.
