I need those too - some of my Altair switches have the handles
physically broken... in fact pretty much ALL the large switches (the
bottom row for run/deposit/exam/reset etc.) are ropey in one way or
another and need replacing (the smaller data/address switches are
fine). If anyone tracks down the correct type of switch please post a
link here! Or if you have any for sale shoot me an email.

Am I correct that the Altair 8800(A/B) also uses
those type of
switch?
If so, I need one or two as well.. my own, lone 8800 isn't quite what
it could be, IIRC. Had to sub switches.
Not exactly--momentary, yes, but clearly not the paddle switches used on
the IMSAI. Fortunately, PCB-mount toggle switches are quite a bit
easier to locate.
I'd probably start here:

if I were looking for a replacement.
