Sanwa OBSC-24 convex style translucent buttons. Ideal for fighting games, candy arcade machines and Fight Sticks.
Research Notes
1. Overview
The OBSC-24 is the 24 mm clear/translucent Sanwa snap-in button — the OBSF-24 mechanism with a transparent/translucent plunger ('C' = clear). Start/aux size (24 mm) for see-through or LED-lit builds, pairing with 30 mm OBSC mains.
2. Technical Specifications & Compatibility
See the structured specs on this page (diameter, mounting, plunger/finish, microswitch). These are standard arcade-button form factors — confirm the panel cutout (30 mm / 24 mm / 18 mm as applicable) and the snap-in vs screw-in mount for your panel thickness before ordering.
