Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for keyboards with Cherry MX-style switches, which feature the standard cross-shaped stem. They support ANSI layouts and are available in various sets to fit 60%, TKL, and full-size boards.
The OEM profile features a sculpted, ergonomic shape with varying heights across rows, which is common for most gaming keyboards. The XDA profile offers a uniform, flat height for every key, providing a consistent feel and a distinct aesthetic.
Yes, these are made from PBT plastic, which is significantly more resistant to the oily shine that develops on standard ABS plastic keycaps. The matte finish helps maintain a clean, textured look even with heavy daily use.
If your keyboard requires specific sizes, such as a 1.75u Right Shift or the four 1u novelty keys, please include a request for these specialty keys when placing your order to ensure they are included in your set.
The legends are created using a dye-sublimation process, which infuses the ink directly into the PBT plastic. This makes the legends highly durable and resistant to fading or wearing off, even after long-term use.
