Know before you buy
No, the Rev. 4 stabilizers feature integrated TPU soft gel in the POM stems, which effectively eliminates ticking sounds without the need for manual modifications like the holee mod.
You should choose based on the thickness of your keyboard's PCB. Check your keyboard's specifications to see if it uses a 1.2mm or 1.6mm PCB, as the stabilizers are specifically sized to ensure a secure fit for each.
The long pole version is specifically designed for switches with a shorter travel distance, typically between 3.5mm and 3.7mm. If you are using standard switches, the regular version is the correct choice.
These are Cherry PCB-mount stabilizers and are compatible with most custom mechanical keyboards that support standard MX-style switches. They are not compatible with plate-mount keyboards.
This mechanism ensures the stabilizer wire remains securely seated in the housing during use. It prevents the common issue of wires dislodging when you remove keycaps, saving you from having to disassemble your board to fix them.
Yes, the TX AP Rev. 4 stabilizers are available in both screw-in and clip-in configurations. You should select the mounting style that matches your PCB's requirements and your personal preference for installation.
