CW Morse Camel Back Straight Key

The key is designed for immediate use, but please note that the specific connector cable is not explicitly listed as included. You will likely need a standard 1/8-inch or 1/4-inch cable to connect it to your transceiver.

While the body is constructed from biodegradable PLA, the critical components—the pivot arm, contacts, and hardware—are reinforced with carbon fiber, brass, and stainless steel. This hybrid design provides the necessary structural rigidity and electrical conductivity where it matters most, while keeping the unit lightweight.

Yes, the tension and gap are fully adjustable, allowing you to dial in a very light, responsive feel. The self-lubricating nylon bearings ensure that even at lower tension settings, the action remains smooth and consistent without sticking.

The unit features an anodized aluminum base equipped with non-skid rubber feet. This provides enough weight and grip to prevent the key from sliding or 'walking' across your desk during standard operation.

Because it uses self-lubricating nylon bearings, it requires very little maintenance. You should occasionally check the brass contacts for oxidation and ensure the tension and gap settings remain tightened to your preference.
