Its low actuation force makes it the right choice when the thing you're detecting is too delicate or too thin for conventional switching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eActuator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e2mm metal spike spring lever\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContact\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e1NO+1NC, snap action\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003eMetal, IP65 protection\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003eTS EN 60947-5-1, UL 508, VDE 0660\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCable Entry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003ePG13.5 \/ M20x1.5 optional gland\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContact Block\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-6\"\u003eChangeable\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the spike lever used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe fine 2mm spike senses thin sheet, foil, or film stock with minimal actuation force, catching material a standard roller lever would miss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this detect small components on a production line?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes — it's well suited to detecting small parts or thin materials on packaging and labelling lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does this compare to the 7mm spike variants?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis 2mm spike is the finest and most sensitive option in the range, suited to the thinnest materials.
