Linemaster’s Clipper foot switch: the perfect choice for many applications

The Clipper foot switch by Linemaster

Customers get access to a wide range of industrial foot switches and accessories from Linemaster Switch Corporation. One of the company’s most popular products is the Clipper electric foot switch, a unique, innovative solution that is set apart by its design: the ergonomic shape and cast-iron housing guarantee longevity of operation for users. Available in single, wide treadle, and multi-pedal models, the Clipper has long been the switch of choice for many tasks, such as material handling and the operation of communications equipment.

Momentary or maintained actuation

The Clipper is available in custom switch variations with momentary or maintained actuation to work with the changing needs that Linemaster clients have. There are three designs available:

• Single – measuring 1½ by 3½ by 4½ inches and weighing only 2¼ pounds.
• Wide treadle – with a seven-inch-wide target that the user can feel for when trying to depress the pedal, plus two holes for rigid mounting to the equipment or to the floor. Measures 1.78 by seven by 5½ inches and weighs 3¼ pounds.
• Twin – with a divider bar that helps lower accidental operation of multiple pedals at the same time. Four holes for rigid mounting to the floor or to the equipment. Measures 1.78 by 8.38 by 4¼ inches and weighs five pounds.

The Clipper foot switch has many other key features, such as an adjustable strain-relief connector, a durable black finish, and a non-skid base pad. Other options include Airval models, a heavy gauge steel guard, and black or orange vinyl boots for the single model, which provide protection from dirt, liquids, or harsh weather.

Users can control lighting with Model 632-DA of this switch, whereas Model 638-S has a cast aluminum housing painted alert-orange and with a splash-resistant interior. Every version of the Clipper has an IP20 protection rating, and differing models comply with the standards of such international safety organizations as UL Solutions in the United States and Conformité Européenne in Europe.

Offering American-made innovation at work every time, Linemaster electric foot switches are suitable for a wide variety of industrial scenarios in many sectors.
