Know before you buy
No, these switches are specifically designed for Hall Effect magnetic keyboards. They will not function in traditional mechanical keyboards that rely on physical metal contact pins.
Stock switches come as manufactured. Lubed switches include professional application of Krytox lubricant to reduce friction and sound, while filmed switches add a thin gasket between the housing parts to eliminate wobble and deepen the acoustic profile.
At 38g, these switches are considered light and responsive, making them ideal for fast-paced gaming or users who prefer a soft, effortless typing feel. They require less pressure to trigger than the industry-standard 50g-55g linear switches.
The 3-pin plate-mount design is standard for most modern keyboards. If you are concerned about stability, opting for the filmed configuration will significantly tighten the housing and minimize lateral movement.
The POM top housing provides a smooth, low-friction surface for the stem, while the Nylon bottom housing offers a slightly softer, deeper acoustic signature. This combination balances durability with a refined sound profile.
