Superior Sound Profile
The Oil King boasts a deeper, more satisfying patch sound. This distinctive acoustic profile enhances the overall typing experience, making every keystroke feel and sound deliberate and precise.
Smooth Typing Feel with Long Spring
Incorporating a lengthy 20mm black-plated spring, the Oil King switch requires an actuation force of 55g and bottoms out at 80g. This configuration not only creates a super-smooth typing feel but also offers a balanced resistance that suits both typing and gaming needs. The gold contacts within the switch further improve anti-oxidation performance, safeguarding against corrosion and ensuring a lifespan of up to 60 million cycles.Upgraded Pin for ReliabilityThe pins of the Oil King switch have undergone a significant upgrade, now being harder and more durable in the three layers. This enhancement guarantees a more reliable connection, reduces pin deformation, and extends the switch's overall lifespan.
Pre-lubed for Optimal Performance
Factory pre-lubrication is a hallmark of the Oil King switch. This process helps minimize spring ping, friction, and hitches, ensuring that each keystroke is as smooth and effortless as possible. The Oil King stands as the quintessential automatic lubrication switch.
Enhanced Stem Stability
With an upgraded stem design, the Oil King provides even more stability than its predecessors. This feature, combined with the switch's other high-quality components, contributes to its reputation as one of the most popular linear switches on the market today.
