Tamiya 75016 - 5A Micro Switch Classroom and Hobby Kit Component  [75016]

Tamiya 5A Micro Switch: Compact addition for STEM kits

The Tamiya 5A Micro Switch is a small but robust component built for a wide range of STEM activities. Its straightforward operation and compact form make it easy to add to student projects and hobby builds where reliable switching is needed.

Electrical capacity and installation

This micro switch is rated for up to 5 amperes, suitable for low-voltage robotics and basic electronics. Its modest footprint allows installation in confined chassis areas, and it integrates well with many Tamiya parts for flexible placement.

Hands-on learning and prototyping

Designed for teaching and tinkering, the switch gives learners a tangible way to explore circuit switching and control. It can be used to drive small motors, switch lights, or act as a tactile input during experiments.

Limit switch and trigger options

In model robotics the component functions well as a limit switch or physical trigger to start actions. Its repeatable actuation helps produce consistent behaviour in simple control systems.
