Mill Max “0305” Switch Sockets

Would you like the freedom to swap switches in your board, but it is not hotswappable? Just get some Mill Max sockets and turn almost any standard PCB into a hotswap one!

• Total length: 3.94 mm
• Diameter: 1.47 mm
• PCB mounting hole diameter: 1.50-1.55 mm
• Flange thickness: 0.64 mm
• Flange diameter: 1.93 mm

There are other “higher-end” sockets (Mill Max 7305 or even 3305), but they cost 2-3x as much which we don’t consider good value (and therefore don’t stock them). The 0305 sockets are a bit longer than necessary and they protrude from the back of the PCB by about 1.7 mm, but that actually makes them easier to solder.

You will need 2 sockets per switch.

Available in a number of packs containing enough sockets for various kits (with a few spares).

If you’re purchasing loose sockets (2 pc packs), you can save by buying in bulk: €0.18 (ex VAT) from 250 packs (500 sockets), €0.16 from 500 packs (1000 sockets) and €0.15 from 1000 packs (2000 sockets).
