George Risk Industries Inc. 4460 Mini Aluminum Surface Mount Switch

Product Description

The GEORGE RISK INDUSTRIES INC. 4460 is a miniature aluminum case jack load surface mount switch used in security and access control systems. This compact switch is designed for surface mounting applications where space is limited and a low-profile installation is required. The aluminum case construction provides durability in typical light commercial and residential security installations. Electricians and security system technicians install this type of switch as part of door, window, or perimeter intrusion detection circuits. Its small footprint makes it suitable for tight mounting locations where standard-size switches would not fit.

The 4460 is intended for surface mount installations on doors, windows, or fixed frames in residential and light commercial security or building access control systems. It falls within the switch mats and traps product category, indicating use in perimeter detection and alarm trigger applications. This switch is sold as an individual unit and is appropriate for new installations as well as service replacement work on existing alarm and access control panels.
