Silicon Rubber Keypads continue to be a popular choice for design engineers. By utilizing silk screen printing or in mold decoration for legends and background, virtually any key colors and layout combinations are possible. When properly designed, tactile performance and wear resistance of Silicon Rubber Keypads can rival that of mechanical switches. Tooling cost and piece price is an exceptional value.

By involving the Laube team early on in the design stages of your end product we can offer our unrivaled knowledge to help you determine if Silicon Rubber, as a key switch option, is correct for the application. Our technical sales staff can assist you in providing information that may affect cost and product performance. Laube’s engineering team will review all available documentation during the development of the keypad, to assure that keypad and housing together with the printed circuit board are compatible in fit and performance. We will make certain that as we develop the tooling it also is conformant to product requirements.

As with each of our product categories we wish to point out that Laube can offer complete turnkey solutions for your “man machine input device.” In any case, we will provide the service, technology, and the price that adds up to the best value available.
