For crafting your custom keyboard, these "Half Height" Low Profile MX key switches are compatible with standard MX layouts and solder-free sockets but are significantly shorter, for a slimmer build. Compared to standard "Cherry MX" compatible switches, which have 10mm above-board height, these have 7mm - but still have the 4mm actuator height. (The 'half height' comes from them having a remaining 3mm vs 6mm body height from the mounting plate to the actuation floor)

Like "MX Black" key switches, these have a smooth linear keystroke. They're basically like MX blacks, but 3mm shorter.

Type: Linear
Operating force: 70 gf (+/-10 gf)
Pretravel: 1.2mm
Total travel: 3.0 mm

Comes in a pack of 12 switches designed to match up with Adafruit's Adafruit MACROPAD here.

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 keycaps to snap right on.
