Gateron Switches
SWITCH COLORS
Gateron Blue Switches
Gateron blue switches have a tactile and auditory click when you press them. These are the loudest switches that Gateron produces. Gateron Blue switches have a 55 gf actuation force.
Gateron Brown Switches
Gateron Brown switches have a tactile bump but don’t have the auditory click that Blues have. These have historically been the best selling switches for X-Bows. Gateron Browns have a 55gf actuation force.
Gateron Red Switches
Gateron Red switches are quiet with a linear feel. Gateron Reds have an 45gf actuation force. These are a great middle-of-the-road switch that is popular with a broad audience.
Gateron Black Switches
Gateron Black switches are linear, like reds, but have a heavier 60gf actuation force. Black switches are a good option for heavy typists who tend to bottom out their keystrokes often.
Gateron Yellow Switches
Gateron Yellow Speed Switches are linear. Yellows are the lightest switch that we offer with a 35gf actuation force and a 1.1mm actuation point. Gateron Yellow switches are the fastest Gateron switches available.
FAQS
What are hot-swappable switches?
Gateron switches are hot-swappable. This means that they can be removed and replaced, without any wiring, soldering, or electrical work required. On a compatible keyboard, Gateron switches simply connect to the PCB beneath them. This allows you to test out different switches to find which best suits you. Some users even choose to use different switches for different parts of the keyboard.
How long do Gateron switches last?
Gateron mechanical switches are designed to last the life of your keyboard. They are rated for 50 million actuations.
