To provide a small and inexpensive switch excellent in productivity and operability.
This switch is provided with a case 1 formed of an insulating material with an open part 1d formed in its front face; a lever 4 positioned in the open part 1d and rotatably journaled to the case 1; a moving contact 2 mounted to the case 1 and formed of a metal thin plate having elasticity; and a fixed contact 3 mounted to the case 1 and capable of contacting to and separating from the moving contact 2. The moving contact 2 has a support part 2c, and an arm part 2c having a free end side rotatable by using the support part 2c as a supporting point. Since the free end side of the arm part 2d of the moving contact 2 is rotated by being pressed by the lever 4 to switch the contact in rotating the lever 4, the switch allowing the moving contact 2 to be mounted to the case 1, capable of simplifying the mounting of the moving contact as compared with a conventional one with the moving contact mounted to the lever, and excellent in productivity can be provided.
