  • Celebrating 50 years of Pickering Electronics
  • 1000+ Reed Relays Logo

Pickering Electronics are proud to bring to you the latest in Reed Relay technology and innovation.

Reliability through Quality

Over 50 years' of outstanding reputation for extended relay lifetime derived from continuous staged manufacturing inspection, strenuous full range thermal cycling and 100% testing for all operating parameters.

Reliability through Design

Our environmentally compliant Reed Relays use Softcenter™ technology, therefore minimising internal stresses on the reed switch, resulting in an extended life & contact resistance stability.

Switching Performance

Our formerless coil technology enables the use of higher AT grade switches; delivering more robust and reliable switching over lifetime, higher standoff voltages, tighter operating windows and a greater immunity to stray magnetic fields.

Cost & Size Performance

Leading edge mu-metal magnetically screened reed relays allow ultra-high packing densities, saving significant PCB space resulting in lower costs, whilst eliminating magnetic interaction effects.

REED RELAY APPLICATIONS

Five times smaller than industry standard relays without compromising on switching performance.

Learn More...

Switching up to 12.5kV. Choice of 1 Form A (SPST NO), 2 Form A (DPST NO) & 1 Form B (SPST NC).

Learn More...

50 Ohms and 75 Ohms reed relays for up to 3GHz for RF and high-speed digital switching.

Learn More...

Our reed relays use only the highest performance components combined with exceptional quality control.

Part of the privately-owned Pickering Group, company operations employ around 250 staff across quality accredited factories in the UK and Czech Republic, supplying demanding Aerospace, Infrastructure, Test & Measurement and ATE applications worldwide.
