Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with any keyboard using Cherry MX-style cross-stem switches. They support standard ANSI layouts and fit a wide range of form factors, including 60%, TKL, and full-size boards.
Double-shot molding means the legends are formed by injecting two layers of plastic together, rather than printing them on the surface. This ensures the characters will never fade or wear off, even with heavy daily use.
The OEM profile is the industry standard for most mechanical keyboards, featuring a sculpted, stepped design that is comfortable for both typing and gaming. If you are used to the stock keycaps that came with your board, these will feel very familiar.
These keycaps are made from high-quality PBT plastic, which is significantly more resistant to the oily shine that develops on cheaper ABS plastic over time. The added textured surface further helps maintain a clean, matte appearance.
Yes, the set includes 104 keys, covering all alphas, modifiers, function keys, and the number pad. It is designed to fully outfit a standard full-size ANSI layout.
