Know before you buy
These switches use a standard MX-style cross mount, making them compatible with most hot-swappable mechanical keyboards that support 3-pin or 5-pin MX switches. Please ensure your keyboard PCB supports the specific pin configuration before purchasing.
The 30gf actuation force is significantly lighter than the industry-standard 50-60gf found in most tactile switches. This makes them ideal for users who prefer a very light, effortless keystroke that helps reduce finger fatigue during long typing or gaming sessions.
No, these switches come pre-lubricated from the factory. They are designed to provide a smooth, consistent feel and a refined sound profile right out of the box.
Not at all. Because they feature a completely transparent PC housing, these switches are specifically designed to allow maximum light transmission, making them an excellent choice for showcasing vibrant RGB effects.
Unlike linear switches that provide a smooth, uninterrupted press, these tactile switches feature a noticeable 'bump' during the actuation point. This provides physical feedback, letting you know exactly when the keypress has been registered.
Yes, they are built for longevity with a rated lifespan of 60 million keystrokes. The combination of a durable POM stem and high-quality PC housing ensures they maintain their performance and feel over years of regular use.
