Snaptron, Inc.

Our tactile domes are momentary switch contacts that, when used in conjunction with a printed circuit board, flex circuit, or membrane, become normally open tactile switches. Tactile domes are placed onto the substrate with pressure sensitive adhesive tape (Peel-N-Place Array) or captured in a membrane-type pocket design.

For more than 20 years, Snaptron has been the industry leader in providing high-quality tactile metal switch contacts and snap domes, along with complementary equipment for a wide variety of industries. Our customer service and breadth of product selection (variety of dome styles, sizes, and forces available) are second to none.

Snaptron carries more than 10 different standard dome styles, with sizes ranging from 4mm to 25mm. Custom tactile domes can also be created with minimal lead times.

Snaptron works directly with customers worldwide. Our goal is to provide the best customer service and industry expertise to make our customers’ projects a success. We do not use distributors, so please contact us directly. We look forward to working with you!
