Description
Upgrade your keyboard with Akko Fairy switches, a silent linear option designed to minimize keystroke noise without sacrificing the smooth feel of a mechanical switch. Part of Akko’s silent switch lineup, the Fairy switch uses integrated dampeners on the stem to quiet both the bottom-out and the upstroke of the key, making it ideal for office environments, streaming, or late-night gaming.
Because these are linear switches, they travel smoothly from top to bottom with no tactile bump and no audible click. They feature a balanced 50gf ± 5gf operating force, a 17mm spring, 3.3 mm total travel, and 2.0 ± 0.5 mm pre-travel, making them comfortable for both fast typing and extended gaming sessions.
Key features:
- Silent linear switch design for smooth, quiet keystrokes without tactile bumps or clicks.
- Internal dampening pads significantly reduce bottom-out and upstroke noise.
- 50gf ± 5gf operating force for a balanced, medium-weight press.
- 5-pin switch design for superior stability in compatible PCB sockets.
- Factory-lubed out of the box for reduced friction and improved smoothness.
- MX-style cross stem compatible with standard mechanical keycap sets.
- Approximate 50 million keystroke lifespan based on laboratory durability testing.
- Excellent for custom silent keyboard builds and hot-swap replacements.
