SSJ12 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSJ12 is a slide switch manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, configured as a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch with a 100mA DC current rating at 12V. This component features through-hole mounting with PC pin termination and epoxy sealed terminals for environmental protection. The SSJ12 is classified as an obsolete product, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to support ongoing design requirements and procurement needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete SSJ12 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches product family. The substitute part 1825280-1 maintains identical specifications across all critical functional parameters: SPDT circuit configuration, 100mA DC current rating, 12V voltage rating, Make Before Break contact timing, On-On switch function, through-hole mounting with PC pin termination, standard actuator type with 2.00mm length and travel, 250gf operating force, copper alloy contacts with silver finish, and -20°C to 70°C operating temperature range. Both components deliver 10,000 mechanical and electrical cycles with epoxy sealed terminals.

The key parameters determining substitution eligibility are:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Current and voltage ratings (100mA DC / 12V DC)
• Contact timing (Shorting MBB)
• Mounting and termination (Through Hole / PC Pin)
• Actuator specifications (Standard type, 2.00mm length and travel)
• Operating force (250gf)
• Environmental sealing (Epoxy sealed)
