250V 5 Pin Slide Switch HSH-2413 Multi Position Hair Dryer Slide Switch
Product Overview
HSH-2413 Slide Switch 250V 5 Pin Metal Frame Power Slide Switch for Hair Dryer
The HSH-2413 is a heavy-duty metal-frame slide switch rated at 250V AC, designed for multi-speed and multi-heat power selection in small household appliances. Its one-piece stamped stainless-steel housing, silver-alloy contact system and straight solder-lug terminals deliver stable switching performance under the repeated, high-frequency operation typical of hair dryers, hot air brushes, heat guns, fans and portable heaters. The long-travel black actuator gives a clear tactile "click" at every position, so the end user always knows exactly which speed or heat level is engaged.
Every unit is 100% electrically tested before packing. OEM / ODM is welcome: pin count, position quantity, actuator height and colour, terminal shape and frame length can all be customised against your drawing or sample.
Key Features
- 250V AC rating – suitable for both 110–127V and 220–240V appliance platforms.
- Stamped metal frame – far higher mechanical rigidity and heat tolerance than all-plastic slide switches, ideal for the hot air chamber area of a hair dryer.
- Silver-alloy contacts – low contact resistance, reduced temperature rise and strong resistance to arc erosion on inductive motor loads.
- Positive multi-position detent – crisp, repeatable feel with no false or floating positions.
- Straight solder-lug terminals – easy hand soldering or wire hooking, secure connection with no loosening after vibration.
- Long electrical life – engineered for the intensive on/off duty cycle of personal-care appliances.
- Full customisation – position count, pin count, actuator style, terminal plating and marking all made to order.
- 100% inspection – conduction, insulation and actuation force checked piece by piece before shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the model number and what does it fit?
A: The model is HSH-2413, a 250V metal-frame slide switch most commonly used as the speed / heat selector in hair dryers and similar hot-air appliances.
Q2: How many positions and pins does it have?
A: The standard build is a 5-pin in-line slide switch with a multi-position slider. Position count and pin count can be modified to match your circuit.
Q3: Can it work on 110V as well as 220V?
A: Yes. The 250V AC rating covers both 110–127V and 220–240V mains platforms.
Q4: Do you accept customisation?
A: Yes. Actuator height and colour, frame length, terminal shape, plating, contact rating and laser marking can all be customised.
Q5: Can I get samples first?
A: Yes, samples are available for testing and approval before you place a production order.
Q6: What is the lead time?
A: Standard models ship quickly from regular production; fully customised versions require additional time for tooling and first-article approval.
Q7: How is it packed for export?
A: Units are bagged or trayed, boxed and packed into export cartons, with packing details adjustable to your warehouse requirements.
