Know before you buy
This set is compatible with most standard mechanical keyboards featuring MX-style cross-stem switches, such as Cherry MX, Gateron, and Kailh. It supports layouts ranging from 61 to 108 keys.
No, these keycaps are not designed for backlighting. The PBT material is opaque, so your keyboard's LEDs will not shine through the legends.
The Cherry profile is shorter and more sculpted than the standard OEM profile, which many users find more ergonomic and comfortable for long typing sessions. It offers a lower, consistent height that helps reduce finger fatigue.
No, the legends are applied using a dye-sublimation process, which infuses the ink into the PBT plastic rather than printing it on the surface. This ensures the characters remain crisp and resistant to fading even with frequent use.
Yes, the matte finish on the PBT plastic is specifically chosen to resist the buildup of finger oils. This helps the keycaps maintain their clean, textured appearance over time compared to smoother ABS plastic caps.
