Guitar Pedal Foot Switches & Accessories

A momentary switch returns when released; a latching switch retains its state until the next press. Normally open OFF-(ON) contacts close only while pressed. Momentary action suits a control input that needs a brief contact, while latching action suits a circuit that must hold its selected state.

SPST switches one circuit on or off. SPDT changes one pole between two contacts; DPDT, 3PDT and 4PDT provide two, three and four changeover poles. The corresponding catalog terminal counts are 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12. Use the terminal diagram to identify each connection; pin count alone does not establish the switching action.

Only if the electrical function and mechanical layout also match. Solder lugs accept hand-wired connections, while PCB versions must match the board footprint and installed height. Compare terminal spacing, bushing length, panel thickness and enclosure clearance using the exact drawing.

No. Toppers fit over an existing actuator, and an LED halo ring provides separate illumination. A spring actuator presses a separate switch on the PCB and has no internal switching mechanism. These accessories need a compatible switch or board assembly. Guitar pickup toggle selectors are also listed here and are not foot-operated.

No. Contact load ratings and LED supply requirements are separate. Single-color and bi-color ring LED versions are listed, and the LH-12 is a separate halo accessory. Specify the LED color, supply and current-limiting arrangement independently; use the confirmed specification for the exact version rather than applying a contact rating to the LED.
