What customers say
The Wuque WS Quartz Linear Switches are highly praised for their exceptional out of box smoothness, largely due to effective factory lubrication. Users consistently note the premium manufacturing quality, evidenced by minimal stem wobble and tight tolerances. A key feature is the unique clear housing, which enhances keyboard aesthetics. Performance is defined by the long pole design, delivering a crisp, satisfying bottom out sound that many describe as clean or marbly. These switches offer incredible value, providing a premium typing experience and desirable sound profile often found in more expensive options. They are considered a fantastic choice for anyone seeking a smooth, visually appealing, and audibly satisfying linear switch in its stock configuration.
Know before you buy
The 'Lubed Only' option provides a smoother feel by reducing friction on the internal components. Choosing 'Lubed and Filmed' adds Deskey films to the switch housing, which tightens the fit to reduce stem wobble and creates a slightly deeper, more solid sound profile.
These are 5-pin PCB mount switches, which are compatible with most modern hot-swappable mechanical keyboards. If your keyboard PCB only supports 3-pin switches, you can easily clip off the two extra plastic legs on the bottom of the switch to make them fit.
The double-stage spring provides a snappier, more consistent return compared to standard single-stage springs. It offers a slightly firmer resistance at the start of the press, which helps prevent accidental key presses and gives the switch a lively, responsive character.
Yes, both the 'Lubed Only' and 'Lubed and Filmed' versions are pre-treated with Krytox lubricants, meaning they are ready for installation immediately. If you choose the custom-lubed option, please note that it requires an additional 1-5 business days for our team to complete the professional application.
The switches feature a durable Polycarbonate top and bottom housing, which contributes to a crisp sound signature. The stem is crafted from Nylon, a material chosen for its self-lubricating properties and smooth travel during actuation.
