• 45-Piece Linear Switch Pack: A complete set of 45 matching switches for a compatible mechanical-keyboard build, targeted replacements or switch customization.
• Smooth, Uninterrupted Linear Action: Enjoy a consistent downward stroke with no intentional tactile bump or click mechanism—suited to gaming and everyday typing.
• 50 ± 5 gf Operating Force: Akko’s specified operating force provides a clear reference when comparing the feel of different linear switches.
• 3.5 ± 0.2 mm Total Travel: A defined full keystroke distance pairs with 2.0 ± 0.5 mm pre-travel.
• More Consistent Factory Lubrication: Akko’s V5 improvements refine lubrication consistency for a smoother, more uniform stroke.
• Upgraded High-Precision Mold: Updated molding is designed to reduce stem wobble, switch ping and other unwanted mechanical noise.
• Upgraded LED Diffuser: An integrated diffuser helps distribute light from a compatible RGB-equipped keyboard; the switch itself is not a light source.
• Stable 5-Pin Installation: Two additional plastic positioning legs help locate the switch on compatible 5-pin mechanical-keyboard PCBs.
• Adaptable 3-Pin Fit: Akko states that the two extra plastic legs can be clipped for suitable 3-pin mechanical PCBs; check the socket and keyboard first.
• MX-Style Keycap Support: Accepts keycaps with a standard MX-style mounting structure.
• Acoustically Thocky Character: Akko describes the sound profile as thocky; the final sound depends on the keyboard, keycaps and build.
• Organized Collection Packaging: Supplied as 45 switches in Akko’s white collection box with a protective tray.
