Gateron Aliaz Switch

These are genuinely silent switches. They feature internal dampeners on the stem that significantly reduce the bottom-out and return noise, making them ideal for office environments or shared spaces where loud clicking or clacking is a concern.

These switches come unlubricated from the factory. While they are smooth out of the box, many enthusiasts choose to apply their own lubricant to further refine the tactile feel and minimize any potential spring ping.

These are 5-pin switches, which means they have two plastic guide pins in addition to the metal contact pins. If your hot-swap PCB supports 5-pin switches, they will fit perfectly; if your board only supports 3-pin switches, you will need to clip off the two plastic guide pins first.

The spring weight determines how much force is required to press the key. The 60g option offers a lighter, quicker feel, while the 80g and 100g options provide a heavier, more deliberate resistance that can help prevent accidental key presses.

Yes, the switches feature a transparent housing that allows light to pass through effectively. They are fully compatible with SMD LEDs, making them a great choice if you want to showcase your keyboard's backlighting.
