Metal Domes (Snap Domes) are made with stainless steel with different thicknesses, they can also be gold plated or nickel plated. With the application of metal dome or snap dome, tactile switches are in normally-open condition.
When metal domes (or snap domes) are at rest, they are in dome shape with normally-open condition. When pushed, the dome collapses and close the circuit. When metal dome or snap dome collapse, it makes a “click” sound and a tactile feeling, therefore it’s also called Tactile Dome.
