Description
The Circuitron 6212TB SMAIL 12-Pack with Screw Terminals is the 12-pack bulk version of the SMAIL-TB — twelve slow-motion stall-motor switch machines, each with a built-in DCC accessory decoder and screw-terminal wiring.
What it does: Twelve SMAIL machines, each with the iconic Tortoise slow-motion throw, the NCE Switch-It™ DCC decoder, and screw terminals for solderless / ZipZ-less wiring. Best value for medium-to-large DCC layouts.
- Quantity: 12 SMAIL-TB switch machines
- Type: Slow-motion stall-motor + DCC decoder + screw terminals
- Mounting: Same as Tortoise (use template 6190)
- DCC: 2-wire to DCC bus, no separate power supply
- Aux switches: Internal SPDT contacts, 2 A AC / DC per machine
- Circuitron SKU: 6212TB (Walthers 800-6212TB)
Tip: The TB (screw-terminal) variant skips the need for ZipZ connectors — fastest install path for a fully DCC-decoded layout. Pair with the drilling template (6190) for a clean batch install.
About Circuitron: A USA-made model-railroad electronics specialist (Maryville, Illinois) founded in the 1970s. Famous for the industry-standard Tortoise slow-motion under-table switch machine and its surface-mount cousin the SMAIL. The full range covers detection (block detectors, Opto-Sensor grade-crossing logic), automation (auto-reversers, external relays, twin-coil alternators), signal / lighting electronics (alternating flashers, ditch-light oscillators, strobe drivers), power supplies, and a complete set of Tortoise / SMAIL replacement parts plus the solderless ZipZ connection system. Most circuits work with AC, DC, or DCC track power unless specifically noted otherwise.
