CustomKeysCo Alpaca V2 Switches

Unlike factory-lubed switches that are mass-produced, these have been manually lubricated by professionals using Krytox 205g0 on the housing and stems, and Krytox 105g0 on the springs. This ensures a consistent, buttery-smooth feel and eliminates the scratchiness often found in stock linear switches.

These are 5-pin switches. They are compatible with most hot-swap keyboards, but if your PCB only supports 3-pin switches, you may need to clip the two plastic guide pins on the bottom of the switch to make them fit.

No, these switches come with Durock switch films already installed. The films help tighten the housing tolerance, which reduces wobble and creates a deeper, more refined sound profile.

The 62g spring weight is considered a 'medium' feel. It is heavy enough to prevent accidental key presses while remaining light enough to avoid finger fatigue during long typing or gaming sessions.

Yes, these feature a standard MX-style cross stem. They are compatible with the vast majority of aftermarket keycap sets designed for Cherry MX-style switches.

The 2x thick pins are designed for enhanced durability and a more secure connection to your PCB. This helps prevent the pins from bending during installation and ensures a reliable electrical contact over the life of the switch.
