The B800-1501 foot switch offers a long-lasting switch great for home or shop applications where you want a smaller size pedal. Features a 15-amp, 125 VAC-rated switch with an 8 ft cable and a 3-pronged piggyback plug (NEMA 5-15 series): plug the pedal into your North American wall socket, and then plug your device into the back of that plug, and the foot switch will now be in line with the device. This is a momentary foot switch, which means that it turns your product on when your foot is on the pedal, and turns it off when you release your foot from the pedal. Great for pushbutton-style pedal action, home, shop, dental, medical, tattoo, and more. Has traction pad on base.
