520 Switch Replaced

Post by mountainbreeze »

I received the switch I ordered from Grainger and replaced the failing locking switch on my 520. As you can see from the pictures, the original switch was a SPST so I replaced it with the same type. I really like the new switch - easy to push and has a nice snap action. The original switch seemed a bit "mushy" - probably due to wear.

The Grainger part number I ordered was 2LNA7. I opted for the red colored one which was a bit more expensive. Here are some other part numbers in case you are interested:

2LNA7 - SPST Red - Tab Terminals $12.32
2LNE9 - DPST Red - Tab Terminals $14.44

2VLP9 - SPST Black - Tab Terminals $7.42
2VLR2 - DPST Black - Tab Terminals $9.77

My thanks to eagleta2 for his post which led me to these switches.
