Excellent Japanese Seimitsu brand Arcade Push Button model PS-14-G with 2.8mm wide terminals and 30mm diameter.
Research Notes
1. Overview
The Seimitsu PS-14-G is Seimitsu's flagship 30 mm solid-color, snap-in pushbutton — the direct competitor to Sanwa's OBSF-30. 'G' = solid opaque plunger, snap-in mount. Slightly stiffer, more tactile feel than Sanwa; built-in microswitch; wide color range. The reference button for the rest of the PS-14 family (K/GN/KN/D/DN).
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.
