Title: C&K microswitch Dremel 4000
Post by: Yago on January 26, 2015, 01:41:52 pm

Trying to find this microswitch for a dremel 4000.
It is a C&K LC 6 250VAC, might be my lame Google-Fu, but I can't find one in UK.

Cheers.

LC series = Subminiature Precision Snap-acting Switches (http://www.ck-components.com/lc/snap-acting,10544,en.html), and there's a lot of information missing to get the same exact switch (check the downloadable catalog pages to see what I mean). Actual PN is on the long side, such as LCS06A060P00WC (http://www.newark.com/c-k-components/lcs06a060p00wc/micro-switch-pin-plunger-spdt/dp/88M3012) (not sure of what you need exactly, just the only LC series I located on Newark).

Not seeing C&K offered on the UK site though (Farnell).  :-// But if you figure out the actual PN, there's a competitor cross reference link page on C&K's site that could direct you to a suitable replacement you can get in the UK.

Convoluted, but if it gets your Dremel operational again, worth the effort IMHO.  ;)

Thanks Nano, I'll give that a shot.

I do have the full part number, will have another punt in the direction advised.
Thanks again :)
