The adhesive formulation used for the construction of V12 and K5 safety related micro switches was altered by the switch maker's sub-supplier. K5 switches have no reported failures, but are affected because of construction. The altered adhesive formulation outgases an insulating material at elevated temperatures, which coats the switch contacts as it cools and can prevent the conduction of electricity.</br>* * * UPDATE AT 0938 EDT ON 10/31/16 FROM PATRICK A.
