Original Sanwa Denshi OBSF-30 (30mm) Snap-In Arcade Push Buttons
Upgrade your arcade stick or leverless controller with the gold standard of competitive fighting game hardware: the Original Sanwa OBSF-30 30mm Push Button. Used as the official OEM button in Japanese Vewlix and Sega arcade cabinets—and trusted by EVO champions worldwide—Sanwa Denshi buttons deliver the fastest reaction time, lightest actuation force, and most reliable input registration for TEKKEN 8, Street Fighter 6, Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, and 2XKO.
Whether you are modding an entry-level stick like the Qanba Drone 2, replacing worn-out buttons on an older fightstick, or building a custom arcade controller from scratch, the OBSF-30 snaps securely into place in seconds.
Key Features & Competitive Advantages
-
Feather-Light Actuation & Instant Reset: Built around Sanwa’s legendary SW-68 microswitch, the OBSF-30 actuates at the slightest brush of your fingers. There is no stiff mechanical click to slow down your double-taps, piano inputs, Kara-cancels, or Tekken throw breaks.
-
Tool-Free Snap-In Mounting: Engineered for metal arcade control panels between 2 mm and 5 mm thick. Simply feed your
.110"(2.8 mm) quick-disconnect wires onto the two vertical microswitch prongs and push the button into any standard 30mm mounting hole until the side tabs click. -
Built for 3 Million Presses: Unlike cheap clone buttons that stick, squeak, or drop inputs after a few weeks of heavy practice, genuine Sanwa Denshi switches are laboratory-rated for over 3,000,000 presses.
-
Mix & Match Customization: Available in vibrant solid colors so you can color-code your 8-button Vewlix or Noir layout, or swap out the inner plungers between colors for a custom two-tone aesthetic.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Are these 100% original Japanese Sanwa OBSF-30 buttons? Yes. Every Sanwa button sold at Game Store India is 100% authentic Sanwa Denshi hardware imported from Japan, featuring the official embossed "SANWA" stamp on the housing and genuine SW-68 microswitches.
2. How many 30mm buttons do I need for a full arcade stick upgrade? A standard modern arcade stick (like the Qanba Drone 2, Obsidian 2, or Hori Alpha) uses 8× 30mm buttons for the main face actions (Square, Triangle, R1, L1, Cross, Circle, R2, L2). We have a minimum order quantity of 5 buttons so you can easily upgrade a 6-button classic layout or an 8-button modern fightstick at the best price in India.
3. What is the difference between 30mm and 24mm arcade buttons?
-
30mm buttons (OBSF-30) are the standard size used for the 8 main action buttons on traditional joystick fightsticks.
-
24mm buttons (OBSF-24) are smaller buttons typically used for the
Start / Options / Shareauxiliary buttons on the side panel, or for all-button leverless (Hitbox-style) controllers.
4. Will Sanwa OBSF-30 buttons fit in my Qanba Drone 2 or Mayflash stick? Yes! Swapping the stock buttons in a Qanba Drone 2, 8BitDo Arcade Stick, or Mayflash F500 to genuine Sanwa OBSF-30 buttons is the single easiest 10-minute upgrade you can make. Simply unplug the two .110" wires from each old button, squeeze the side tabs to pop it out, and snap your new Sanwa OBSF-30 buttons right in.
