For crafting your very own custom keyboard, these Kailh Black Linear mechanical key switches are deeee-luxe! With smooth actuation and Cherry MX compatibility, they're lovely when you want a smooth linear keystroke with a slightly higher operating force than the Reds.

  • Type Linear
  • Operating force: 60 gf (+/-10 gf)
  • Pretravel: 1.8 mm (+/- 0.3 mm)
  • Total travel: 3.6 mm (+/- 0.3 mm)
  • Reset point: 1.8 mm

Comes in a pack of 10 switches, plenty to make a small keyboard or grab a few packs to build a full keyboard.

  • Use these with our NeoKey boards, such as the Socket Breakout and the FeatherWing.
  • They work great with mechanical key sockets if you want to avoid soldering.
  • We also have MX-compatible key caps to snap right on.

We also carry the Red, White, and Brown versions of these key switches, for different key-press feel.

Not to be confused with The Black Keys.. but they do have a bit of soul!
