I know it is very important for the product design. You should leave the enough space for the <a title=\"metal dome\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/products.htm\">metal dome<\/a> &amp; <a title=\"metal dome array\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/product-dome-array.htm\">metal dome array<\/a> between your PCB &amp; cover layer.<\/p>\n<p>This time follow me to clarify this question, it is very easy for us whom are specializing in this industry for so many years.<\/p>\n<p>For the <a title=\"metal dome\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/products.htm\">metal dome,<\/a> you can see our 6mm diameter, four-leg shape metal dome. The total height is 0.31mm, &amp; the thickness of the material is 0.06mm, so the stroke is 0.31-0.06=0.25mm.<\/p>\n<p>The formula is: Stroke= Height &#8211; Thickness of material &#8211; Thickness of the dimple (if there is a dimple in center).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blogimages\/S6F-160-N-BestTech.jpg\" alt=\"Four-leg metal dome\" width=\"439\" height=\"252\" align=\"middle\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For the <a title=\"four-leg metal domes\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/products.htm\">four-leg metal domes<\/a>, the life cycles always have the one million times. &amp; they are popular used in the membrane switche products.<\/p>\n<p>For <a title=\"the metal dome array\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/product-dome-array.htm\">the metal dome array,<\/a> you can see the follow picture:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blogimages\/dome-array-layer-up-BestTech.jpg\" alt=\"The structure of the Metal dome array\" width=\"418\" height=\"120\" align=\"middle\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can see the 3# spacer is parallel to the 2# metal dome &amp; the thickness is lower than the domes. So you can ignore the thickness of the spacer. The total height = Mylar + Metal dome=0.05+0.31=0.36mm. For the more detail, you can see my last blog.<a title=\"the-whole-thickness-of-our-metal-dome-arrays\/\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/2009\/11\/07\/the-whole-thickness-of-our-metal-dome-arrays\/\">http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/2009\/11\/07\/the-whole-thickness-of-our-metal-dome-arrays\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>How about the stroke? In fact, it is the same as the natural <a title=\"metal domes\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/products.htm\">metal domes<\/a>. It should be ignored the thickness of the Mylar &amp; Spacer. So you can use the above formula to calculate the stroke.<\/p>\n<p>I think you are fully understand the stroke of our <a title=\"metal domes\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/products.htm\">metal domes<\/a> &amp; <a title=\"metal dome arrays\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/product-dome-array.htm\">metal dome arrays<\/a> now.
