Know before you buy
Switch films are primarily used to reduce stem wobble within the switch housing. By filling the gap between the top and bottom housing, they create a tighter fit that results in a more stable, consistent keystroke.
The choice depends on your specific switch housing. The 0.15mm film is generally better for switches with looser tolerances, while the 0.125mm version is ideal for tighter housings to prevent the switch from becoming too difficult to close or causing interference.
These films are designed specifically for MX-style switches. They may not fit proprietary switch designs or low-profile switches, so it is best to verify that your switches follow the standard Cherry MX form factor.
Yes, they can subtly alter the acoustics. By eliminating housing rattle, films often produce a deeper, more refined sound profile compared to an unfilmed switch.
While it is common practice to film all switches for a uniform feel and sound, it is not strictly required. Many enthusiasts choose to film their entire board to ensure consistent performance across every key.
