OEX ACX3705BL 16A Non-Illuminated On/Off SPST Rocker Switch 12V and 24V Carling Format 21x37mm 2 Blade Terminals
The OEX ACX3705BL is a 16A non-illuminated On/Off SPST rocker switch rated for 12V and 24V systems, with a 21x37mm rectangular mounting footprint. The 21x37mm mount is the standard Carling-format panel size used widely in marine switch panels, 4WD accessory consoles and aftermarket switch housings the same footprint as the OEX ACX1975BL illuminated Carling style rocker. The ACX3705BL offers a non-illuminated option in the same format for installations where LED indication is not required or where a uniform non-lit panel appearance is preferred. Two blade terminals for direct wiring. 34mm mount length. Covered by a one year warranty.
Product overview
The ACX3705BL fills the non-illuminated position in the OEX Carling-format rocker switch range. Where the ACX1975BL (20A, blue LED) is the illuminated Carling-format option, the ACX3705BL provides the same 21x37mm format without illumination suited to panels where a clean, uniform appearance is preferred over lit indicators, or where the 24V rating is required alongside 12V compatibility in a Carling-format switch.
At 16A across both 12V and 24V systems, the ACX3705BL suits a broad range of accessory switching applications in passenger vehicles, 4WDs, caravans and commercial vehicles without needing separate part numbers for each voltage. The two blade terminals provide a direct two-wire connection. For loads exceeding 16A, the switch should trigger a relay rather than wiring the load directly through the switch contacts.
