Little rubber thingies, rubber switches, etc.

[Bill Layer]

Hi All,

A bit of useful info from the world of telecom.

Conductive rubber switches are a major business in the telco industry;
several small companies stay busy doing nothing but repairing and replacing
these failure prone little devices. The ones that rely on conductive paint
are the worst, and can be quite prone to shorts.

A mail order company in Chicago IL, called Telecom Products has several
professional 'board-level' repair systems for these types of switches, as
well as cleaners, conditioners and plastic restorers. They also stock
obsolete parts, which could come in handy.
