VARILIGHT retractive switches

Retractive switches spring back when released: for blinds, doorbells and anything that needs a momentary signal rather than a permanent on.

Push-to-make.

Momentary switches have circular push buttons and can be used where push-to-make switches are required, for example to trigger a relay or activate a motor that controls a blind.

In addition to push-to-make momentary switches we also offer push-on/off impulse switches across all our decorative finishes.

  • Screwless Brushed Brass rocker style switch
Momentary switches shown in Screwless Brushed Steel, Iridium Black, Premium White & Brushed Brass.

2-way and centre-off.

Retractive rocker switches are also available as 10A 2-way and centre-off (off-centre-off) switches, for blinds, doorbells and anything that needs a momentary signal rather than a permanent on.

  • 2-way retractive: retractive push to make switch that springs back when released.
  • Centre-off retractive: push up or down and it springs back to the centre, ready for the next press.
