Features & Details:

Stainless steel vs gold-plated springs: the gold is a thin plating applied over the same steel spring, and its job is corrosion resistance. It does not change the weight or the feel — that comes from the gram rating you choose. Pick gold if you want the corrosion resistance or the look; pick stainless if you want the same spring for less.

If you feel that your switches don't have the right actuation weight to them but don't want to buy new switches, then look no further than the switch springs! Just simply open the switch and swap out the old springs for the new!

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the stainless and gold-plated springs?

The gold is a thin plating applied over the same steel spring, and its only job is corrosion resistance.

It does not change the weight or the feel - that comes entirely from the gram rating you choose. Pick gold if you want the corrosion resistance or simply prefer the look, and stainless if you want the same spring for less money.

These are sold from 35g up to 150g, and the weight is how hard you have to press before the key registers.

35g and 45g are light and fast, and suit gaming or a light touch. 60g to 67g is the middle ground that most people get on with for typing and gaming alike. 80g is firm and deliberate. 150g is a novelty weight, usually fitted to a single key as a joke or as a deterrent - it is not meant for a whole board.

You need to open each switch, lift out the stem, swap the spring and clip it back together. A switch opener makes this far quicker and avoids snapping the housing clips.

It is worth doing at the same time as lubing, since the switch is already apart. Take the switches out of the board first if it is hot-swap; if the switches are soldered in, they will need desoldering before you can open them.

They fit Cherry MX style switches, which covers Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, OUTEMU, KTT and most other MX-compatible switches.

They will not fit optical, magnetic Hall effect or low-profile switches, as those use different internals.
