    witch dimension detaills:
    1 3/8 " Length of mounting face.
    3/8 " Width of mounting face.
    15/16 " Height of switch frame with fiber portion.
    5/8 " Height of ball above face.
    1 1/16 " Center to center of face countersunk screw holes.
    5/8" Wire screws, side to side.

    I count 2-3 threads in the punched/countersunk mounting screw holes (3/32" screw?)
    Arrow-Hart & Hegeman became a wiring devices division of Cooper Industries and produced switches like these for military and other industrial use after the Second World War and through the years of jet aircraft and rocket construction.
    The packaging is Continental Can Co. which acquired Robert Gair Co. (paper containers) and Cochran Foil Co. (so far, packaging includes protective foil perhaps as an antioxidant?)
    That's all
