Tane Alarm stb-3/8tcdmwh Recessed Contact 3/8 in 10 Pack

Product Description

The TANE ALARM stb-3/8tcdmwh is a recessed magnetic contact designed for door and window security alarm installations. The stubby 3/8-inch cylindrical body fits into a drilled recess in the door frame or window frame, allowing for a clean, concealed installation that keeps hardware out of sight. Each unit features a terminal quick-connect design for fast, reliable wiring connections. This product is sold in a 10-pack, making it practical for multi-zone installations or service van stock. Security alarm installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary end users for this type of component.

Recessed contacts like the stb-3/8tcdmwh are used in residential and light commercial security systems. The 3/8-inch diameter form factor is one of the most common sizes for wood door frames and window frames where drilling a small-diameter hole is preferred to surface-mounting hardware. The quick-connect terminal simplifies field wiring and reduces installation time per zone. These contacts are typically wired into a hardwired alarm panel as normally closed loop devices.

Key Features

• 3/8-inch stubby body for installation in tight or shallow recess depths
• Terminal quick-connect design for fast field wiring
• Recessed mounting keeps hardware concealed in door or window frames
• White finish blends with standard interior door and window trim
• Sold as a 10-pack for multi-zone jobs or service stock

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style recessed magnetic contact for hardwired residential and light commercial security alarm systems that accept standard normally closed loop door and window sensors.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or alarm system technicians. A 3/8-inch drill bit is required to bore the recess hole in the door frame or window frame to the appropriate depth for the stubby body. Ensure all power to the alarm panel zone is de-energized before making wiring connections. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and the alarm panel manufacturer's wiring guidelines when terminating the contact leads.
