Hairpin dip switch

[IconicPCB]

Used to be able to get a dip switch which consisted of two shaped pieces of wire per switch.
One part, the fixed part was in a shape of a hook so that the movable part could be forced downwards beneath the hook and would be retained closed contacting the hook.

The spring tension was sufficiently high to create a gas tight contact between the two parts of the switch according to the data sheet.

In order to engage or disengage the procedure was a bit more involved than simply toggling or sliding the slider.

It would fit in conventional 0.3" pitch array.

A hint of where it might be found would be appreciated.

I remember them, but haven't seen one in 20 years.
Any reason you're not interested in the more recent DIP switch offerings?

I also remember them.  Maybe the O.P. wants them because they are both washable in production and cleanable in service?  OTOH, if as I suspect, the contacts are plated spring steel, rust may be an issue in humid environments.

I also recall seeing them occasionally 'soldered' - once the initial configuration / resets had been completed.

I seem to think they were a Siemens product.
It takes a certain effort to engage and disengage a contact  forcing the brain to engage along the way.
The corrosion is a possibility but the image is of one such item assembled way back in early eighties ( say 83 ) no corrosion so far.
