Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What keyboard types are Kailh Box Switches compatible with?
A: Kailh Box Mechanical Keyboard Switches use a standard Cherry MX 3-pin footprint, making them compatible with the vast majority of custom and commercial mechanical keyboards that support MX-style switches. Simply check that your PCB supports 3-pin switches before purchasing.
Q: What is the difference between the White, Jade, and Navy Kailh Box switch variants?
A: All three are clicky switches with audible and tactile feedback, but they differ in actuation force and sound profile.
