Description
The Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT is a high-quality Japanese-made arcade joystick, manufactured by Sanwa Denshi Co. Known for its precision and durability, this joystick is a top choice among fighting game enthusiasts, especially fans of Street Fighter. It is widely used in popular fight sticks like MadCatz and QanBa, as well as in many Japanese arcade machines.

Each joystick includes:

• Flat mounting plate
• Dust covers
• TP-MA board with pre-soldered microswitches

The JLF-TP-8YT features a light spring pressure, but it can be modified for a stiffer feel by replacing the spring with alternatives such as the Seimitsu LS-55.

By default, the joystick is set to 8-way with a square restrictor gate, but it can easily be switched to 4-way mode. Simply remove the plastic restrictor, lift the center piece, and rotate it to the 4-way position. The joystick also comes with a JLF-H 5-Pin wiring harness for easy installation.
