Emergency STOP button Fi40 red without illumination, plastic twist XB5AS8445

Emergency stop button for machines – safety and reliability

This red emergency stop button, with a mushroom head diameter of 40 mm, is a key element ensuring safety in industrial and workshop environments. Designed for mounting in 22.5 mm diameter holes, it offers reliable operation and easy integration with existing control systems. Its distinctive color and clear mushroom head shape ensure quick identification in emergency situations.

Design and application

The button is designed for durability and resistance to harsh working conditions. The rotary unlocking mechanism guarantees that after the button is activated, the machine will not restart without the operator's conscious action. Made of durable plastic, it is resistant to impact, dust and vibration. The IP66 protection rating provides protection against water jets, making it an ideal solution for applications both indoors and outdoors. Thanks to the screw connection of the auxiliary circuit, installation is simple and intuitive.
