From power distribution in industrial systems to control inputs in electronic equipment, toggle switches remain one of the most dependable and widely used switching solutions. Shogyo’s toggle switch product line is built to meet these demands with consistency and durability.

We’ve supported OEMs and engineering teams for decades with a broad selection of toggle switches, ranging from standard configurations to heavy-duty, environmentally sealed options designed for long-term performance. Below is a closer look at our capabilities and here’s a look at what we offer.

---

Standard Toggle Switches

Our standard-size toggle switches are built for panel-mount applications where durability and clear switching action are the priority. Available in SPDT, DPDT, 3PDT, and 4PDT configurations with solder lug, screw terminal, quick connect, and wire wrap termination options. A reliable workhorse for industrial controls, power distribution, and equipment enclosures.

---

Miniature Toggle Switches

For designs where panel space is at a premium but switching performance can’t be compromised. Our miniature toggle line covers SPDT, DPDT, and 3PDT configurations with PCB, solder lug, and quick connect mounting — in both vertical and right-angle orientations. A strong fit for communications equipment, instrumentation, and mid-density control panels.

---

Sub-Miniature Toggle Switches

Compact form factor for tight layouts. Our sub-miniature toggles include both standard and IP67 sealed variants, with options for PCB and SMT mounting. The sealed ES-series switches in this range are particularly well-suited for applications exposed to moisture, dust, or wash-down conditions. Available in SPDT and DPDT functions.

---

Ultra-Miniature Toggle Switches

When space is the tightest constraint of all. Our ultra-miniature toggle switches pack reliable switching performance into the smallest possible footprint — ideal for densely populated PCBs, portable instruments, and compact consumer or medical devices.

---

Sealed & IP-Rated Toggle Switches

For applications in harsh or outdoor environments, we offer a dedicated range of sealed toggle switches rated IP67 and IP68. This includes the NE-series (IP67) and T6013/T6023 industrial series (IP68), as well as washable sub-miniature options like the ET-5-C. Built for environments where exposure to liquids, contaminants, or demanding wash-down cycles is a regular reality — think marine, outdoor industrial, food processing, and field equipment.

Whether you’re designing medical equipment, building a smart home device, or specifying components for heavy industrial machinery, one thing almost every electronic system shares is the need for reliable audio feedback. That’s where Shogyo’s buzzer and piezo product lines come in.

We’ve been supplying piezoelectric and electromagnetic buzzer components to engineers and procurement teams around the world for decades. Our lineup spans everything from miniature SMD buzzers for compact wearables to robust, high-decibel transducers built for harsh industrial environments. Here’s a look at what we offer.

---

Audio Indicators

Our largest and most versatile product line. Available in piezo, magnetic, and solid-state technologies, with mounting options including PCB pins, screw terminals, quick-connect tabs, lead wires, and SMD — operating from as low as 1.5V up to 120V AC/DC. Sound output ranges from 70 dB up to 105 dB, with tone patterns including continuous, fast pulse, slow pulse, hi-low, and sweeping siren. If you need a self-contained, ready-to-install audio alert, this is your line.

---

Audio Transducers

For designs where your firmware drives the audio output directly. Transducers give engineers control over frequency, pulse pattern, and tone.  Ideal for medical devices, industrial safety equipment, and any application with specific or branded alert requirements.

---

Piezo Elements

Bare piezo discs for custom acoustic assemblies. Lightweight, low-cost, and highly adaptable. Used across consumer electronics, sensing applications, and OEM designs where the element is integrated directly into an enclosure or housing.

---

Piezo Sirens

When you need to be heard, these deliver. Our siren line puts out 105–110 dB at 100 cm with a sweeping siren tone. Built for security systems, fire and gas detection, industrial alarms, and any outdoor or high-noise environment where a standard buzzer won’t cut it.

New legislation is being introduced to potentially protect the importers, exporters, and OEMs that were held hostage by the debilitating labor slowdowns at the West Coast Ports earlier this year.

The introduction of the Comprehensive Transportation and Consumer Protection Act was prompted by contentious labor negotiations between the PMA and ILWU that significantly impacted the U.S. economy from November to May. Things got so bad that U.S. Secretary of Labor Thomas Perez was forced to get involved before an accord was reached.

This six-year bill would require the Department of Transportation to work with the appropriate authorities in establishing a program to submit reports to Congress on the performance at each of the nation’s key ports. These reports would be required before and after the expiration of labor contracts to help keep the public informed as to the impact of labor discussions on port operations.
