Know before you buy
The GMK Blue Sumrai set is designed for Cherry MX style switches. This includes most mechanical switches from brands like Gateron, Kailh, and Outemu that feature the standard cross-shaped stem.
Double Shot molding uses two layers of plastic to form the keycap and the legend. This ensures the characters will never fade or wear off, even with heavy, long-term use.
The Cherry Profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, lower-profile design that reduces finger fatigue during extended typing sessions.
With 172 keys, this set offers extensive coverage for most standard layouts, including full-size, TKL, and many compact or custom configurations. We recommend checking your keyboard's bottom row and shift key sizes against the set's included keys before purchasing.
These keycaps are crafted from high-quality ABS plastic. This material is chosen for its ability to produce vibrant, consistent colors and a smooth, premium finish.
