- UNIVERSAL BACK-UP ALARM SWITCH
Pollak 41-706 Universal Back-Up Alarm Switch – Heavy Duty 8 Amp, Normally Off, Mechanical Reverse Switch
Reliable Reverse Safety for Vehicles Without Automatic Back-Up Circuits
The Pollak 41-706 Back-Up Alarm Switch is the industry-standard solution for adding a reverse safety alarm to trucks, trailers, and heavy equipment not originally equipped with an automatic back-up light circuit. Designed for durability and precision, this switch mounts adjacent to the reverse shift lever to trigger your backup alarm or lights the moment the vehicle is shifted into reverse.
Built to withstand the rigors of commercial use, the 41-706 features a unique spring-loaded lever that permits "over-travel," preventing damage to the switch during aggressive shifting.
Key Features:
-
Universal Compatibility: Designed for vehicles without factory-installed back-up light circuits; mounts easily adjacent to the reverse shift.
-
Over-Travel Protection: The spring-loaded lever design allows for movement beyond the contact point, ensuring long-term mechanical reliability.
-
