Know before you buy
This set is compatible with most mechanical keyboards using Cherry MX-style cross-stem switches. With 140 keys included, it supports layouts ranging from 61 to 108 keys, including both ANSI and ISO configurations.
The MDA profile is a sculpted, uniform-height profile that is slightly shorter and rounder than the standard OEM or Cherry profiles. It offers a larger surface area for your fingertips, which many users find more comfortable for both extended typing sessions and gaming.
No, these keycaps are not designed for backlighting. Because they are made from opaque PBT plastic using dye-sublimation, light will not pass through the legends.
The legends are created using a dye-sublimation process, which embeds the ink directly into the plastic. This makes them highly resistant to fading and wearing off, even with heavy daily use.
PBT plastic is specifically chosen for its matte, textured finish, which is significantly more resistant to the oily shine that often develops on standard ABS keycaps after prolonged use.
