Thank you so much. I still don’t understand how you determined this is the right cap. I have a dozen on order with switches. Have some great holidays!

If you click on the PN series switches < Datasheet Link Here > and scroll down to the bottom of the document the compatible switch caps are located there.
Thanks for the follow up. I’m not trying to pick a fight or be argumentative, but I downloaded that Datasheet when I was making my initial search and it clearly says the round caps are for “S” actuators. It says the DPDT PN switches have “S” actuators, but it does not state what kind of actuators the SPDT PN switches have. Furthermore, the dimensions of the actuator stems are quite different between the double and single pole versions.
I was also frustrated when trying to search for the caps of any type. I realize the vastness of the DigiKey inventory and I love the filtering system for searching, but this time I couldn’t make it work for me.
I was also successful in downloading the circuit, footprint and 3D model of the switch for my Fusion PCB. I even added a fake cap given the 7mm diameter information.
As I said, I’ve placed my order for a dozen and hope they’ll fit, but I have my doubts.
Thank you very much again for your support with this part.

Yes, I definitely see what you mean.
I’m reaching out to our Product Management team for C&K on this for clarification.
In the meantime if it gives you problems please feel free to reach out to me personally.

Thank you for understanding. When a giant company like DigiKey treats a tiny little hobbyist like me with full attention and support, that speaks volumes about how good that company is. Slowly but surely I’m being weaned away from Amazon.

Hi rexroach,
Looking at the part number breakdown:
The PN11SBNA03QE has the “S” actuator. Further, only the PN21 and PN22 can have the “L” actuator.
Therefore, any of the actuators on page 4 of the datasheet would work with the PN11SBNA03QE.
So all of the “G00xy” caps would fit.

That’s super, David. Thank you so much for helping me.
