I’m really hoping someone can help me locate this power switch from a plate amplifier. The marking on it are what look to be “SHRU” maybe??? The R looks to be backwards and I’m just not sure. On the other side it says “1.5A 250VAC”.
It’s a two position switch. It has 5 solder pins on it, the outer most two appear to be an ground/shield of some kind. The inner 3 seem to do all of the work.

What appears to be outboard electrical connections are a structural component to the switch....when applying force to operate the switch, the forces are routed thru those two lugs...we can infer these forces are distributed along the printed circuit-board...Usually, these switches distribute forces applied along the "nose" of the switch, as most have threads and appropriate nuts & washers.
If indeed there is no structural component to secure the switch, & the support is solely on the PC board, you may have to fabricate an "L bracket"....if you can't find an exact replacement.

This is a mounting bracket that is soldered to the pcb. You may be able
to remove it from the old switch and install it on the new switch.
Then you just need a standard size SPDT mini-switch.

Thank you so much for responding. That’s what I’m hoping to get help with, I need one with out threads on the front of it. It’s held to the board by those two outside pins (plus the three in the middle that are in circuit) and not to the plate amp face with any time of nut. The toggle switch just simply slipped through a hole on the face plate labeled “power”. I’m really hoping to keep these amp stock looking.
For this reason of difficulty finding parts and the fact that they completely smothered the boards in glue and silicone makes me think they don’t want people easily working on their stuff.

This is a custom switch configuration that you won't ever find in a catalog.
If the silver tube is a permanent part of the switch, you'll have to improvise
and find a similar tube to match it for the new switch. Maybe a spacer, check catalogs.

Try C&K 7101MD9V2BE. It's an SPDT toggle switch. If I understand their part numbering scheme the "V2" specifies the vertical bracket. Double check their data sheet to make sure what you're getting is what you want.
