When cutting and bending the leads of reed switches, it is important to use proper support and cutting tools to avoid damage to the hermetic seals between glass and metal. A damaged seal will over time affect the contact resistance and the lifetime of the contact. It is important that the component leads are clamped with sufficient force to prevent shocks or bending from being transferred from the cut to the switch seal.
