I am looking for a SPST tumbler (toggle) switch which has a long actuator/handle (at least 30 mm long).
When browsing the internet, I stumbled across a switch from APEM in its 600H series.
In that series APEM has also types with actuator lengths 30mm and 40mm. But looking for a supplier I cannot find that type.
Can somebody on this Forum help me with this problem.
It is in fact not important which manufacturer but as long as it can supply that 30mm actuator it is O.K.
In the attachments I show which type I mean.

Have You considered vintage 70's amp parts ? Lots of them on Ebay. On/ Off , Tape monitor switches...I haven't measured my Pioneer switch, but should be in the 3 cm ballpark.

Ah, did not realize this as a possibility. Yes, my initial wish was to use those switches which are used on my vintage Sansui AU555A amplifier which I am still using for more than 49 years.
Thanks for your suggestion MAACO (MAAC0 ?)!
RS should have what you need. A quick search came up with the following with a 40mm lever: 641H/2-5 | APEM DPDT Toggle Switch, Latching, Panel Mount | RS Components
This one is DPDT, but that's easy to use as SPST.

Thank you guys for your suggestions. Much appreciated!
Will look for a company in Europe which can supply one of these.

Thank you very much DontHertzme ! 🙂
Done!
Placed an order using that Dutch RS connection 🙂
It was the quickest way for me to do.
But the link for All Electronics Corp placed in my Bookmarks list also. 🙂
