Know before you buy
Removing the nipple allows the dome to sit flush and function correctly when paired with Topre conical springs. This modification ensures the spring makes proper contact, providing a consistent and refined tactile response.
Yes, these are designed specifically for Topre switch housings. However, they are intended for enthusiasts who are using them in conjunction with Topre conical springs.
Each pack contains 60 individual domes. This is typically enough to cover the main typing area of a standard 60% or 65% keyboard layout.
These BKE domes are known for a much more pronounced, snappy tactile bump compared to the softer, more cushioned feel of stock Topre domes. They offer a sharper, more aggressive feedback profile that many enthusiasts prefer for precision typing.
You will need a screwdriver to open your keyboard case and a set of tweezers or a small tool to carefully place the domes and springs into the switch housings. Patience is key, as the process requires precision to ensure every spring is seated correctly.
