90-Pack Pre-Lubed Linear Switches

The kutethy Gateron Oil King V2 set supplies ninety five-pin linear switches that arrive factory pre-lubed for immediate installation in a mechanical keyboard. Each switch uses a gold contact point and supports both two-pin and four-pin LED lighting without protruding SMD components. The upgraded pin design aims to improve socket retention during assembly.

Suited for full-board builds and custom layouts

Builders completing a standard QWERTY board or a compact layout will find the ninety-count package covers most configurations with a few spares left over. The ambidextrous linear action suits typists and gamers who prefer a consistent keystroke without tactile feedback. Users who want clicky or tactile switches, or who need fewer than ninety pieces, should look at alternative switch types or smaller packs.

55 gf actuation with 60 million cycle rating

The switches actuate at 55 gf ±5 gf and reach a bottom-out force of 65 ±10 gf across four millimetres of total travel, delivering a smooth stroke that remains consistent over long sessions. Gateron rates the mechanism for a minimum of 60000000 cycles, giving ample headroom for heavy daily typing. The linear force curve offers no tactile bump, so users who rely on physical feedback for actuation confirmation may find the switch less informative.

Questions about this item

Do I need a hot-swap PCB that accepts 5-pin switches to install the Gateron Oil King V2 switches?

Yes — the switches have 5 pins and must be inserted into a hot-swap PCB with matching sockets; soldering is not required.

Can I keep my existing 3-pin or plate-mounted switches on the same board while adding these 5-pin linears?

No — a single PCB uses one socket type; mixing 5-pin and 3-pin switches on the same board is not possible.

How do I verify the 55 gf actuation force and 4 mm travel feel correct after installation?

Press each key and confirm a smooth linear stroke without tactile bump or click, bottoming out at the full 4 mm travel.
