ARIA Matte Vertical 16A Switch Assembly 1-6 Gang
One gang or six.
Designed for the wall.
Built for the work.
Vertical Switch Assembly 16AX
ARIA’s Vertical Switch Assembly pairs a slim 6.25mm face with a stainless-steel-reinforced grid that takes screw load off the face. ARIA’s matte polycarbonate plates resist oil and grime. The familiar 30 Series format keeps your options open: rotate the mechs vertically or horizontally, or swap in any ARIA mech. Vertically fitted 16AX single-pole mechs are supplied, each built to handle high inrush currents with 1-way and 2-way switching. Each mech’s terminals take up to four 1.5mm² or two 2.5mm² conductors. Grid mounting keeps each switch action crisp without cover-plate flex. Tested to 50,000 mechanical cycles and backed by a 25-year parts-and-labour warranty.
