PRODUCT FEATURES
Silicon rubber keypads
support multiple printed and molded colors, spray, textures and graphic
backlighting effects. These solutions provide a soft feel silicone rubber
key-top hardness range from 30 to 90 shore A, flexible in size and shape to meet
all customer design needs. Switch contact solutions range from low cost carbon
pill printed on rubber pad (typically less than 2000 hms) to high performance
co-molded gold pill (typically less than 10 hms).
