Maxkey SA Profile Keycap Set

The SA profile is a tall, sculpted keycap shape with a spherical top surface. It is generally taller than standard OEM or Cherry profiles, offering a retro, typewriter-like aesthetic and a distinct, deep sound profile that many enthusiasts prefer.

This set is designed for keyboards with MX-style stems, which are the standard cross-shaped mounts found on Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh, and most other mechanical switches. As long as your keyboard uses this standard stem, these caps will fit.

No, these keycaps are not shine-through or backlit compatible. The legends are double-shot molded, meaning the lettering is a separate piece of plastic embedded into the keycap, so light will not pass through the characters.

Double-shot molding is a manufacturing process where two layers of plastic are fused together to create the keycap and the legend simultaneously. This ensures that the lettering will never fade or wear off, even after years of heavy use.

Yes, with 134 keys included, this set provides comprehensive coverage for standard full-sized layouts, as well as many compact and enthusiast layouts like TKL (Tenkeyless) and 65% boards.

Like all ABS plastic keycaps, these will eventually develop a slight shine or 'patina' on the surface after extended use due to the oils from your fingers. This is a natural characteristic of the material and is often considered part of the vintage aesthetic that SA profile users enjoy.
