You can do this directly using rails form helper also by specifying type as an option to "button":

<%= form_for @product do |f| %>
    

      <%= f.label :type, :class => 'control-label' %>

      

        

          <%= f.button "Button_1", type: "button", class: "btn" %>
          <%= f.button "Button_2", type: "button", class: "btn" %>
        
      

    

    

      <%= f.submit nil, :class => 'btn btn-primary' %>
      <%= link_to 'Cancel', products_path, :class => 'btn' %>
    
<% end %>
