What customers say
Enthusiasts highly value the Durock Anubis Tactile Switch for its sharp, pronounced tactile event. Users consistently praise the satisfyingly aggressive bump that initiates high, offering a definitive feel unlike softer alternatives. Stock smoothness is excellent, reflecting superior manufacturing quality, often making immediate use possible without lubrication. The long-pole stem delivers a unique, solid bottom-out sound profile sought after by many. While quality control is strong, some users find the switch weight intense for extended typing. Despite its premium price, reviewers agree the distinct, robust tactile experience justifies the cost, positioning the Anubis as a top choice for those prioritizing maximum tactility.
Know before you buy
The Anubis switches offer a sharp, assertive tactile bump. They are designed for users who prefer intense, pronounced feedback with every keystroke rather than a subtle or rounded sensation.
These are 5-pin PCB mount switches. While they are compatible with most modern hot-swap boards, you should ensure your PCB supports 5-pin switches or be prepared to clip the two plastic guide pins if your board only supports 3-pin mounting.
No, these switches come factory lubed for immediate, smooth performance. While enthusiasts may choose to re-lube them for a specific custom feel, they are ready to install and use right out of the box.
Thanks to the Nylon housing construction, these switches produce a deep, resonant sound profile. They lean toward a fuller, lower-pitched acoustic signature compared to switches made with polycarbonate or other housing materials.
With a 65g bottom-out force, these switches provide a medium-heavy feel. They offer enough resistance to prevent accidental key presses while remaining comfortable for extended typing sessions.
