Slide switches include an electrically insulated support housing having opposing pairs of side walls which establish an interior space. An upper wall is joined to an upper edge of the opposing pairs of side walls to close an upper end of the interior space and defines an opening in communication with the interior cavity. An electrically insulated slide body which is slidably disposed within the interior space of the support housing so as to be movable reciprocally between at least first and second positions therewithin. The slide body also defines a cavity and has a knob which projects through the opening defined in the upper wall of the support housing to allow movement of the slide body between the first and second positions. At least one pair of elongate conductors are fixed to the support housing such that the at least one pair of fixed elongate conductors extend parallel to one another but are positioned in spaced relationship transversely relative to the reciprocal movement of the slide body. The slide body includes an electrically conductive movable contact disposed in the cavity. This movable contact has a protruding contact surface which contacts both the fixed conductors when the slide body is in at least one of the first and second positions. In addition, the movable contact has an opposed pair of upturned sides which exert a bias force outwardly against the slide body cavity and to thereby frictionally retain the conductive strip within the cavity.
