Foot operated pedal switch (Single & double socket options)

  • Sale
  • Regular price £45.99


Fantastically versatile metal pedal foot switch, suitable for controlling a wide range of tools including scroll saws, table routers, grinders, drill presses, log splitters and lathes.

Available with either a single or double socket. The double socket enables both a power tool and small vacuum to be connected and controlled by the pedal.

Switching Options:

  • Normally open (NO) - The power is turned on when the pedal is depressed, and turns off as soon as it's released.
  • Normally closed (NC) - The power is turned off when the pedal is depressed and turns on as soon as it's released. Ideal as an emergency stop if used with a tool with an NVR (on/off switch).
  • Latching - The power is turned on when the pedal is depressed and then remains on. The power is turned off when the pedal is depressed again. N.B. the latching pedal is as shown in the picture (black GRP).

Where fitted, an NVR (start/stop switch) would need to be bypassed for the pedal to control the tool. Otherwise, each time the pedal turns on the supply, the start button on the tool would have to be pressed. Further guidance can be found here.
