According to an electromagnetic switch of the present invention, a crossbar operating in conjunction with a movable core slides in response to magnetization or demagnetization of an operating coil to cause attraction or separation between a fixed contact point and a movable contact point on the supply-side and between a fixed contact point and a movable contact point on the load-side. The electromagnetic switch further includes a first crossbar sliding part and a second crossbar sliding part, as well as a first casing sliding part and a second casing sliding part that allow the first and second crossbar sliding parts to slide. A contact between the first casing sliding part and the first crossbar sliding part or between the second casing sliding part and the second crossbar sliding part causes the crossbar on the side of the movable core to be tilted in a direction opposite to the direction of gravity with respect to the horizontal.
