Know before you buy
No, this set is specifically engineered for the Geonworks F1-8X chassis. It will not provide a proper fit for other models due to the unique internal dimensions of the F1-8X.
The foam is designed to dampen internal vibrations and reduce hollow resonance within the case. By filling the empty space, it helps create a more solid, refined typing sound.
Yes. Because the foam is opaque and designed to sit between the plate and PCB, it will block any underglow or per-key backlighting. This set is intended for users prioritizing acoustic performance over lighting effects.
The 3mm plate foam sits between your switches and the PCB to soften the bottom-out feel, while the 2mm case foam sits at the bottom of the chassis to absorb sound reflections and protect the internal electronics.
No, the foam is not washable. It is best to handle the components with clean, dry hands and ensure your keyboard case is free of debris before installation.
