Hella Toggle Switch On/off Dpst 15A 12V Part No. 4056

The Hella Toggle Switch On/Off DPST is a 3 position switch with Off - Park - Head Lamp action, rated at 15A @ 12V and 7.5A @ 24V. It uses push-on terminals and has a 13mm diameter opening, with a 7mm mount length for panel installation.

This switch is supplied as a single each item and carries Part No. 4056. It is non illuminated and has 3 terminals, so it suits straightforward control applications where the switch function and physical size need to be confirmed before purchase.

The mounting detail is important here: the switch is intended for panels up to 6mm thick. The 13mm diameter opening and 7mm mount length give you the key measurements to check against the panel or console opening before ordering.

With Hella branding and a three year warranty, this toggle switch is a practical electrical component for applications that require a defined 3 position control and a conservative current rating of 15A at 12V.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, confirm the mounting hole is 13mm in diameter and that the panel thickness is within the stated 6mm limit. The mount length is 7mm, so both the opening size and the available panel depth should be checked together rather than relying on one measurement alone.

The switch is rated at 15A @ 12V and 7.5A @ 24V, so it should be matched to the circuit load and system voltage. If the application sits near those limits, allow suitable margin and verify the wiring, fuse protection, and existing load before installing.

Because this is a 3 position switch with Off - Park - Head Lamp action, the intended function matters as much as the physical fit. Confirm that the original control uses the same switching logic, 3 terminals, and toggle style before replacing an existing unit.

Push-on terminals make installation straightforward where matching female terminals are already in place, but the terminal style still needs to suit the vehicle or machine wiring. Check the connector size and terminal arrangement before fitting to avoid unnecessary rework.

The switch is non illuminated, so it will not provide built-in backlighting or indicator lighting. If the original switch includes illumination or a lamp function, this model should only be chosen if the non illuminated configuration is acceptable for the application.

Part No. 4056 is the most useful identifier when comparing this item with an existing switch. If you are cross-referencing, use the part number together with the 13mm opening, 3 positions, and Off - Park - Head Lamp action to confirm you have the correct match.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number 4056 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.
