On/Off Rotary Switch 3/8" Shank Lamp Part Brass/Nickel Finish
On/Off Rotary Switch 3/8" Shank Lamp Part Brass or Nickel Finish 6A 125V New
The canopy switch that fits where others don't — and finishes the job right.
A canopy switch is one of those parts that has to be exactly right. Wrong shank diameter, wrong finish, wrong rating — and the restoration stalls. This single-circuit on/off canopy switch is built for lamp and light fixture work where a compact, reliable switch is needed directly at the canopy, lamp body, or custom lighting assembly. It fits table lamps and custom lighting builds where a canopy-mounted on/off switch is called for. The 3/8 inch shank seats cleanly through standard canopy and lamp body hardware. The knurled, removable knob simplifies installation in tight assemblies and gives the switch flexibility across a range of restoration and repair applications. Available in brass or nickel finish, so the hardware matches what is already on the fixture.
MEASUREMENTS Overall depth from knob to back of switch: 1 1/4 inches. Switch body width: 3/4 inch. Switch body length side to side: 7/8 inch. Shank width: 3/8 inch. Threaded section length: 1/4 inch. Wire length: 6 inches.

Can't Find the Part?
Looking for a matching sconce, a replacement shade, or an odd-sized fitter? Send us a photo and measurements. A large portion of our inventory is uncataloged. Many of the doors, windows, fireplace surrounds, bath fixtures, and architectural pieces in the yard never make it to the website. If you don't see it online, that doesn't mean we don't have it.
