6-Pin Momentary DPDT Polarity Reverse Rocker Switch ON-OFF-ON
6-Pin Momentary Polarity Reverse Rocker Switch – 3-Position DPDT ON-OFF-ON
Take precise control of your DC motor direction with this compact and reliable Momentary Polarity Reverse Rocker Switch. Featuring a 3-position DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) design, this switch springs back to the center OFF position the moment you release it — giving you instant, intuitive directional control for linear actuators, DC motors, and a wide range of electrical projects.
Key Features
- Momentary Action: Automatically returns to the center OFF position upon release for safe, precise operation — no accidental motor run-on.
- Wide Power Rating: Rated at 10A/250V AC, 20A/125V AC, and 16A/12V DC — compatible with a broad range of DC motor and actuator applications.
- Sturdy Construction: Built from durable plastic with a solid rocker mechanism, engineered to handle repeated use and varied environmental conditions.
- Ready to Install: Comes pre-wired with 6 crimped wire leads — simply connect and go. No extra wiring tools required for basic installation.
- Compact Footprint: Measures just 39 × 29 mm (W × L), making it ideal for panel mounting in tight enclosures or custom builds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does "momentary" mean for this DPDT rocker switch?
A: A momentary switch only stays in the ON position while you are actively pressing or holding it. As soon as you release the rocker, it springs back to the center OFF position automatically. This makes it ideal for controlling DC motor direction safely, as the motor stops the moment you let go.
Q: Is this switch compatible with linear actuators?
A: Yes. This 6-pin momentary polarity reverse rocker switch is specifically designed for use with DC motors and linear actuators. Its ON-OFF-ON DPDT configuration allows you to reverse the polarity of the power supply to the actuator, enabling forward and reverse movement with a single switch.
Q: What is the maximum current and voltage rating for this rocker switch?
A: This switch is rated at 10A at 250V AC, 20A at 125V AC, and 16A at 12V DC. Always ensure your application's current and voltage requirements fall within these limits for safe and reliable operation.
Q: Does the switch come with wires pre-attached?
A: Yes. The package includes one momentary polarity reverse rocker switch with 6 pre-crimped wire leads already attached, making installation straightforward and hassle-free right out of the box.
