Know before you buy
Yes, this is authentic Krytox 205g0 lubricant. We source it to ensure you are getting the exact grade and consistency required for high-performance mechanical keyboard switches.
A single 5ml container is sufficient to lubricate between 400 and 500 mechanical switches. This is more than enough for several full-sized keyboard builds.
Krytox 205g0 is a thick grease that significantly reduces switch friction and eliminates scratchiness. It also deepens the sound profile of your switches, resulting in a smoother, more premium typing feel.
While 205g0 is the gold standard for linear switches, it is quite thick for tactile switches. If you use it on tactile switches, apply a very light coat to avoid losing the tactile bump, or consider a thinner lubricant like 3203 or 3204.
Yes, the container is specifically contoured to allow your brush to reach the bottom and sides easily. This minimizes waste and makes it much simpler to pick up the right amount of lube without making a mess.
