Know before you buy
No, this plate is specifically engineered for the QK80 MK2 keyboard. It will not fit other Qwertykeys models due to differences in mounting points and internal dimensions.
Materials like PC and POM offer a softer, more flexible typing feel with a deeper sound profile. Conversely, ALU and CF provide a stiffer, more rigid typing experience with a sharper, higher-pitched acoustic signature.
These plates are not designed for backlighting. If your build relies on per-key RGB or underglow, please note that these plates do not feature cutouts for light pass-through.
For the most flexible typing experience, PC (polycarbonate) or POM are your best options. These materials have natural flex properties that provide a softer bottom-out feel compared to metal or composite plates.
The plate is designed to integrate directly into the QK80 MK2 assembly. You will use the existing mounting hardware provided with your keyboard kit to secure the new plate in place.
