510 Switch

Post by db5 »

I need to replace the DPST rocker switch (20a 1.5-2.0 hp). Anyone know where I can order one online. Ace Hdwe doesn't have them.

I've seen them on ebay and it remains an active part from the mothership. Some have a safety key, some do not, so it is important to decide if you want that, want to avoid it, or don't care. Jacob Anderson, IIRC, has a short video on why he feels his is better than original.

I personally would not use one that was not explicitly Motor Rated. (Motor Rated means it is designed to handle the much higher amperage of a motor at startup.) Even if it says it is for power tools.

Thanks for your help. I decided to go with a rocker switch that was 2 HP rated and found this one on zoro.com - Zoro #: G1773983.

I'm not sure of this one. The description says it is "Momentary On/Off," but one of the reviewers said he used it in a RAS and he was happy with it. A Momentary switch would not work for a Shopsmith (also not for at least most RAS's).

The 2LNE9 that the OP selected is available on Ebay for $10 + $4 Shipping.

I had two tabs open for different switches and, (blame it on age) I clicked on the wrong one. When I got the switch I realized what I had done and contacted Zoro.com. This is the reply I received:

I’m sorry that your recent order didn’t meet your needs. Thank you for contacting us to take advantage of our 30-day refund policy. I have processed your request with the return authorization number RA675473. We make returns easy and don’t want to inconvenience you by having you send your item back. Please keep, donate or dispose of it. Your refund in the amount of $xx.xx will be refunded back to the original form of payment within 7 - 10 business days, and we’ll send you an email to let you know it’s been completed.

Now that is customer service!
