Abstract
A thermally responsive electrical switch assembly is shown having a housing with a dielectric end portion through which is formed a passage an axial portion of which has an integrally molded thread which coacts with an externally formed thread of an electrically conductive terminal member extending through the passage; a resiliently deflectable elastomeric member, generally within the housing, frictionally engages the terminal member as to thereby mask any otherwise perceived looseness between the externally formed and integrally molded threads and, instead, cause the terminal member to exhibit an apparent smooth movement during threadable adjustment thereof.
