Linear Typing Feel

The Oil King switch is the newest mechanical linear switch that features a Nylon PA66 upper housing, a housing base made of secret black Ink housing material, and a POM stem. The stem in the upper housing is fantastic with ultra-stability and almost no wobbliness. Compared to CJs, it has a deeper patch sound.

New Upgrade

The pin is upgraded to 3.0 Pin with a 0.3-0.33 mm three-ply chunky design for a more reliable connection and a longer life span. The stronger pin allows for less damage and deformities and makes it easier to hot-swap.
