Drum Switches

Drum switches are designed for manually reversing the motor direction in boat lifting systems, boring mills, milling machines, grinders, conveyor lines and machine tools. Raptor Supplies offers a wide array of Dayton and Square D drum switches featuring maintained / momentary reversing action for retaining the lever position, unless forcefully actuated or pressed to return to the original position. These units further come equipped with NEMA 1- / 4-rated enclosure for protection against accidental impacts & external contaminations and a plastic / steel handle for maximum user convenience over prolonged use.

Working Mechanism

  • Drum switches are manual switches that allow the user to manually reverse the direction in which a motor is turning.
  • The switch contacts are opened and closed manually by moving the drum switch from the Off position to the forward / reverse position.
