Development of a High Click Feeling and Long-Life "Long-stroke" Type Switch to Add to our Top Push Switch Series

　We are pleased to announce the development of a high click feeling and long-life "Long-stroke" type switch to add to our lineup of top-push switches.
　Maintaining the low profile of existing top push switches, this product secures a long-stroke of 0.27mm (1.8 times more than our existing products), enabling a greater sense of operability.
　It also has a longer life than our existing products with an operating life of 500,000 times (5 times greater than our existing products). This product can be loaded in a wide variety of appliances such as multi-functional printers, which have increasingly required a control panel with lower profile and thin/long-life switches in recent years. It can also be included in industrial and automotive devices.
