Slide switch

------Question for S-1-Z Please Put your question below-----

I am trying to restore my old Realistic DX-160 manufactured for Tandy by GRE in Japan in the 70’s. I am trying to replace one of the DPDT heavy duty slide switches. The shop manual lists the part # as Radio Shack 275-0403. I found this on eBay in the original blister pack but when I tried to install it the knob is way too short and didn’t match the other slides that still work.it seems GRE used and OEM part for these slides with a very “high knob” version. Also the screw holes are “latched” meaning you can just screw them in without a nut to hold it in place. I have been struggling to find a proper replacement. This part is 9 mm high knob which might be right. Does this part have “latching” screw holes?

Hello,
Welcome to the DigiKey TechForum.There are threads in the screw holes on this switch which are M3×0.5 so you wouldn’t need additional nuts to fasten the switch.
