Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with most keyboards using Cherry MX-style cross stems and standard ANSI layouts. They support a wide range of sizes, including 61%, 64%, 68%, 75%, 84%, TKL, and 99% configurations.
No, these keycaps are not designed for backlighting. Because the legends are side-printed and the keycaps are constructed from solid PBT+PC material, light will not shine through the characters.
The double-shot molding process fuses two layers of plastic together to form the legends, meaning they are physically part of the keycap rather than just printed on top. This ensures the characters will never fade or wear away, even with heavy daily use.
The Cherry profile is a popular, slightly shorter keycap shape that is widely considered comfortable for long typing sessions. It offers a familiar, ergonomic feel that is generally lower in height than the standard OEM profile found on many stock keyboards.
The blend of PBT and PC provides a more durable, rigid feel with a slight texture that resists the 'shine' that often develops on cheaper ABS keycaps over time. It offers a premium, matte finish that feels stable and grippy under your fingertips.
