Limit Switch Cross Roller Plunger
The Dayton 12T949 is a miniature limit switch with a cross roller plunger actuator mounted on top. It carries a single-pole double-throw contact form rated at 10 amperes and 300 volts for both AC and DC circuits. The body measures 1.97 inches high, 1.57 inches wide and 0.63 inches deep. A boot-sealed actuator and NEMA 4, 6, 6P, 12 and 13 ratings protect the contacts in wet or dusty environments.
Replaces worn miniature limit switches
This unit serves as a direct replacement for failed miniature switches that use a top-mounted cross roller plunger and SPDT contacts. The jump is worth it when the original switch has lost sealing integrity or the actuator no longer returns reliably. Identical contact ratings and mounting holes simplify the swap without rewiring the control circuit.
Suits machine builders and maintenance teams
Engineers who need a compact, sealed position sensor for conveyors, lifts or guarding will find the ratings match the application. Buyers who require a different actuator style such as a lever or wobble stick should look elsewhere. Installers needing a larger body or higher current capacity must select a different series.

Questions about this item
What are the body dimensions for mounting the 12T949 limit switch?
The switch body measures 1.97 in height, 1.57 in width and 0.63 in depth for surface mounting.
How is the cross roller plunger actuator wired, and what mistake should be avoided?
Wire the SPDT contacts for the 10 A, 300 V AC or DC rating; the common error is reversing normally open and normally closed terminals.
When should the boot-sealed actuator be inspected or replaced?
Check the boot seal during routine maintenance; replace the switch if the seal is torn or the plunger action feels gritty.
