RS Components has signed a direct distribution agreement with C&K, one of the world’s largest tactile switch manufacturers, and is also renowned for its board-mounted toggle switches. The company currently stocks hundreds of C&K switches, including tactile, pushbutton, toggle, rotary, key switches and switch locks, DIP and SIP switches, slide switches and detector switches. Over the next six months, RS Components intends to double its C&K switch offering, focusing first on the most recent and innovative products, as well as strengthening support for its entire C&K portfolio through the new direct working relationship. Electronic design engineers, buyers and contract electronics manufacturers (CEMs) will soon have access to technical data on over 23 400 C&K switches through the RS Product Data Library. The company will make its range of C&K products available in large-quantity packaging to help customers find the product they need in the packaging they want.
