The JKDK x XCJZ Silent Tactile Switch, also called the Feather Silent Switch, is a collaboration between JKDK and XCJZ, created to deliver an ultra-quiet yet deeply tactile typing experience. Designed for custom mechanical keyboard enthusiasts, this switch combines a large tactile bump with soft bottom-out silicone dampening for reduced noise and enhanced feedback.
Each component is fine-tuned for comfort and clarity, from the lightly factory-lubed internals to the transparent bridge-style housing for LED compatibility. With NLpro material housings and a POM+TPU blend stem, this switch offers both durability and performance.
