Why IP67 Rocker Switches Are In Great Demand In The Market In 2025

In 2025, the market demand for IP67 rocker switches has been upgraded in numerous markets such as automotive electronics, agricultural machinery, automation devices, and power tools. With more severe conditions and improving technology, the need for strong, weather-proof, and faultless switch solutions has never been so high. Since 2011, Dongguan Createn Electronics, a well-established enterprise, has become a leading supplier of these indispensable components, offering heavy-duty switches with high quality to meet diversified global needs.

Increasing Environmental Issues Require IP67 Protection

"IP67" denotes a high level of protection against solid particles (like dust) and water submersion. IP67 is the new norm for switches in harsh and outdoor environments. As increasingly used in rugged applications—from farm fields and construction sites to off-road equipment and factory floors—IP67 rocker switch are crucial to allowing equipment to operate safely and reliably, even under hostile environments.

We have provided an immense variety of rocker switches that offer IP67 protection and maintain the IP53 protection at the base. Such a switch is suitable for all applications, particularly when water splashing, dust ingress, and physical stress are of everyday issue.

Where Are IP67 Rocker Switches Being Used?

One of the best examples of the IP67-rated switch is our electric locking rocker switches like the Original LiuGong 34B2486 stop switch used for agricultural loader armrest boxes. These rocker switches are specially crafted to avoid accidental use and are rated 24V/12V at 10A, protected with IP67 above the panel—very suitable for harsh conditions.

Our other most frequently used items are:

  • Forklift rocker switches for safe and reliable control in material handling equipment.

  • 3-gang and 9-gang car rocker switches, both offering robust protection and high customization.

  • Heli forklift handbrake switches with IP67 protection for enhanced operator safety.

  • Fan manual reversal and regeneration prohibition rocker switches, widely used in automotive and industrial control panels.

The rising application of such switches in farm loaders, forklifts, and heavy equipment is a testament to the significance of such switches in today's industrial and vehicle designs.

Strength and Customization Drive Demand

Increased need for custom control solutions within equipment has come with it the needs for custom IP67 rocker switches. We are unique in offering custom functions, pattern, LED lighting, and PCB board mounting. Like their Auto rocker switch with custom pattern—to replace Carling rocker switches—is greatly in demand for its customizability and rugged durability.

Sealed sea area type design of our rocker switches prevents water and extraneous matter from ingress, which makes them even more reliable. Moreover, silver contact structure and mechanical life cycle with up to a million cycles ensure smooth operation in the long term with heavy electric loads.
