Din Rail Toggle Switch

[Professor Marvel]

Not on tractor topic but everybody here works on all sorts of things so I hoped I could get direction.
I am looking for a supplier for simple din rail mounted toggle or rocker switches for inside a control panel.
Thanks for any help.

I think I've seen that in the MSC catalog.
I think their website is:
mscdirect.com

You do know how Google works? Just put "DIN rail toggle switch" into the search line. You'll come up with suppliers like Amazon.com, Newark, etc. Really - it's not all that complicated or difficult...

Why don't you just use a DIN rail mount circuit breaker as a switch?? You can buy them for less than $10.

The circuit breaker looks like my best choice so far. I will probably end up with that. I was just hoping for a slightly different look for my customer. I didn't think it would be so difficult to find.
thanks
Apparently I have a Google that is far inferior to swines

Electronics online I generally go either Allied or Newark...

Allied Electronics - Industrial Automation & Control Products Distributor
Newark element14 | Electronic Components Distributor


Could also just go with a 22mm switch/pushbutton/operator of any of a bunch of different configurations, then use this adapter frame:

M22-IVS - EATON CUTLER HAMMER - DIN RAIL MOUNTING ADAPTER | Newark element14

yes I had seen this but they wanted something like 65 bucks for it. It's a light switch and i couldn't bring myself to spend that for a light switch. I thought it should be easy to find a switch on a din rail hanger for about 5 bucks. Guess not
Thanks for checking for me

German institute for standardization in other words.

And now I know what DIN is.

And I bet you thought a DIN was just a big loud noise!
