Looking for 2,8mm axis switch CAPS!!!

[JAY X]

Hi friends,

I'm looking for switch caps for my ALPS SPUJ mini switches. These ALP switches have a square axis of 2,8mm.

The normal (and bigger) alps switch has a 3,3 mm axis and there is no problem to find switch caps for these at CANFORD, FARNELL, etc.. but none of them have caps for 2,8mm axis.

Well, MOUSER HAS original alps 2,8mm switch caps, but at a price...1,30 Euros/each....is toooooo much.

That is why i'm asking if someone knows a place in europe to find 2,8mm axis switch caps like the SIFAM: PB 10/51/000 (FLAT TOP) Heigth: 11,2mm External diameter: 5,5mm

It doesn't have to be sifam, any other brand with simmilar measures will do.

Thanks a lot,
JAY X

Did you find a solution?

These caps are pennies, and according to the PDF, they should work: http://www.rapidonline.com/electronic-components/knob-for-pcb-switch-6mmx9-05mm-black-78-0067

I'd be grateful if anyone can confirm that these caps will work.

elco dis seems to stock some 2.8mm switch caps, about half way down the page, they're the rean "B220" style though
