Button Switch (Red/Green Emergency Stop)

Great quality product

Excellent

These 2 Emergency Stop Pushbuttons (commonly known as E-Stop's) are made from plastic and metal parts and they are for panel diameter holes of 22mm, the main housing (contact blocks and main collar block) is approximately 40mm long (traveling back into the panel/box) and approximately 28.8mm wide (left to right side) by approximately 39.7mm tall (the thickness-including up to the red separation release lever). These pushbuttons are lightweight, but I do not believe they are in no way light weight because of being cheaply made, because I think they are built solid and firm. The E-Stops have 1 Normally Open and 1 Normally Closed set of contacts, which can easily be changed if needed. As far as functionality is concerned, I think it functions well. I installed one into a small box and I have pressed it several times for testing purposes, and it has operated just as it was designed to. Resetting the E-Stop is as simple as giving the large front (Red) head of the button a clockwise twist and the E-Stop returns to its normal state. Also, there is 3 white direction arrows on the front for resetting reference showing the clockwise rotation for resetting it. So, for the installation the E-Stop it is as simple as drilling a 22mm hole in the location of your choosing and applying the functions of an Emergency Stop Pushbutton to your project/process. As far as the way the E-Stop looks, I think it looks a basic design, nothing fancy and it performs well. I will say that there's an included yellow ring that fits around the E-stop and it is marked with the words "EMERGENCY STOP" in black letters and it appears that the black letters are a bit faded and do not stand out. This is just my opinion, and this does not prevent the E-Stop from functioning, and it of course can still be read, it just doesn't stand-out as much as I would like it to. When it comes to the value, I can say that it's an average product for the price. At this point 2 of these E-Stops are approximately $30 USD which it could be said they are $15 USD each Which is a great Price for an E-Stop Pushbutton. But, after saying that I can also say there is other companies who also sell Emergency Stop Pushbuttons and they are practically all metal design and heavier built, but they also include a very heavy price tag. When it comes to selecting the best E-Stop for your project/process you have to decide what is the type of system it will be utilized in, and voltage and amperage ratings. Where will it be installed indoors/outdoors, in what type of environment. Ther is a large list of things to consider when choosing the right Emergency Stop Pushbutton, however this version is a decent mid-range option.

"Oh no! The 5.45 train is loaded with passengers and is going to collide with the slow tanker train crossing its track! What do we do now??" No worries, a quick press of the Big Red Button saves the day.As you might have guessed, this emergency button is being employed in my model railway as an "if all else fails, press this" button. It's bigger and offers a more reassuring way of stopping all rail activity than hunting out the little button on the controller that suffers from finger trouble in an emergency. Simple and effective and the benefits quickly outweigh the cost.As shown in the photo, it's a little marvel of engineering displayed inside its transparent box. A red lever switch returns the button to its "ready" condition after it has been pressed. There is a black screw collar to fit the mechanism behind a 7/8" panel hole.My application only runs at 13 V and about 3 A of current, which is well within its specification of up to 600 V at 10 A !

honestly, i don’t know what makes a “great” emergency stop button. i’m not a button expert by any means. all i know is this one looks the part, has a decent quality build to it & when you push it, everything stops. so i guess that’s a win! But yeah… The price (as of June 2025) feels a bit much for something that just stops things. I guess you do get two.installing it was easy enough and it feels solid when you press it. nice tactile click, doesn’t feel cheap. Twist it to unstop and reset everything. i’m using it on a DIY setup and haven’t had issues. bottom line: it works. it’s bright red & it stops your stuff when pressed. what more could you want?

I plan on using this with my diesel fuel tank pump. The switch works great and has a nice solid feel. One set of normally closed and one set of normally open contacts give you great flexibility. The only comment I have is there were no instructions at all. Had to use my multimeter to determine which contacts for NC or NO.

The media could not be loaded. I used one of these Emergency Stop Buttons as a safety measure for my DIY CNC router. The switches have two sets of terminals, and can be wired for either NC or NO, according to your configuration. In my case, I wired it as a PANIC BUTTON to kill the power to the CNC controller, and stop all movement in an emergency. It'll probably save me a lot in wasted material and broken bits when a program doesn't go as planned. This button gives me peace of mind when running my DIY contraption.

The media could not be loaded. I bought this 2-pack of Emergency Stop Button Switches for my CO2 laser machine, and I’m very pleased with the quality. The buttons are solidly built, feel durable, and give a satisfying click when pressed. The construction is sturdy, and they look like they’ll hold up well over time.Installation was straightforward, and the 10A rating gives me peace of mind for safety and reliability. These are exactly what I needed to add a physical emergency cutoff to my setup.
