Product Overview

Colored silicone rubber switch buttons with engraved details should present a clear legend within the visible key area. The relationship between the color surface, marking and housing opening determines what remains readable after assembly.

ETOL can customize shape, dimensions, colors and identification features. Position the legend away from heavily curved or flexing regions, and align each key with the underlying actuation point. A visually centered mark should accompany a mechanically centered key.

Inspect the assembled control from its normal viewing angle and through the key's full movement. Evaluate response with the intended circuit, checking return and clearance beside the panel edge. If illumination is part of the product, assess the marking with the complete lighting arrangement rather than the button alone. During assembly and cleaning, protect the engraved surface from scratches and incompatible substances. Correct any housing edge that rubs the key before replacement so a new surface is not damaged at the same location during repeated pressing.

Material options
Silicone. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
Hardness selection
Silicone: 20–80 Shore A. Evaluate response with the intended circuit, checking return and clearance beside the panel edge.
Custom dimensions
ETOL can customize shape, dimensions, colors and identification features.
Fit & assembly
Position the legend away from heavily curved or flexing regions, and align each key with the underlying actuation point.
Use & inspection
Correct any housing edge that rubs the key before replacement so a new surface is not damaged at the same location during repeated pressing.

Ordering this custom component

Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?

Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.

Which details should be agreed before tooling?

Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.

Can a sample help define the replacement?

A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.

How is the quotation for this part determined?

The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
