: Anybody know how close you can mount HAPP pushbuttons without the undersides interfering with eachother?
My panel I am putting them so there is an 1/8" between them. On the top the buttons are 1 1/4" (the hole being 1 1/8").
:And also, if you mount them this close on a wooden control panel, will the spaces between the holes be weakened too much?
Depends on the wood. MDf and good plywood are strong
: Also... what's the maximum control panel thickness that the buttons can mount on?
I have a 3/4" MDF. The buttons Just fit. Putting a 1/8" plastice on top, will need to counter sink buttons on bottom a little.
