Electromechanical Switches

MADE IN THE USA

Engineered Electromechanical Switches for Mission-Critical Controls

Guardian builds mission-ready electromechanical switches for high-reliability HMI—ranging from compact 4-/5-way mini/“hat” and multi-way selectors to trigger, toggle, rocker, slide, thumbwheel, and linear transducer devices. We tune feel and function to your program: momentary or maintained actions; SPST to multi-pole/multi-throw circuits; defined detents, travel, and actuation forces; sealed and EMI-hardened options; illumination, guards, and custom mounting/terminations. Built in the USA under AS9100 quality, Guardian switches deliver precise tactile response and long cycle life for aerospace, defense, and industrial control grips and panels—available as proven catalog parts or engineered-to-order assemblies.
