Silent Mechanical Keyboard Switches Set - 35 Pieces Factory Pre-Lubed, 5-Pin Linear/Tactile Switches for Custom Mechanical Keyboards (Sea Salt(Linear Silent))

I have these in my daily use keyboard which came with the snow switches default. The snow switches are not bad at all but they're a little too clicky for me. My ideal sound from a keyboard is no sound at all. I do not want clicky, clacky or scratchy switches. The pursuit of the perfect silent switch is not easy but I have come really close to my version of silence when I popped these sea salt linears in. They may not be the greatest silent but they are so close that the only sound I get is from the space bar. That's not a switch failure, it's a space bar thing. Any space bar can be annoying and not pleasant but it is 100% better than before I used the sea salts. I will do some tuning on the stabs later but for now it is acceptable. These sea salt switches are the linear and extremely quiet, so matched with the right board and keycaps you can have a nearly inaudible keyboard. Great for office and home where the clicky, clacky switches are not welcome. Or if you yourself just cannot abide irritating sounds which can drive you mad. The feel of the sea salts are very nice and they are pre-lubed which I find rather time saving. I didn't even have to apply lube at all because they were perfect out of the box. They are also made well and are not flimsy materials which I like, the sea salts are solid. I think you will get your money's worth from these switches, I did not get one bad switch in the entire lot and I ordered 2 sets. The only suggestion I would make is that the stems were longer because even though they fit my Azoth just fine, they are just a little short in my other keyboards. I could use taller keycaps or taller springs but I do not want to go changing the ones I have in the other boards just to get the best height profile to use these sea salts on them, I will find some silents with longer stems some day. It all comes down to preference and I like what I like. Besides the stem length these are just great. They are so smooth, not scratchy, and the leaf springs don't ping either. I highly recommend these sea salt silent linear switches and I will be buying another batch soon for some other boards. If you value silent, quiet switches then you will be happy with these sea salts. In my opinion these are a 5 out of 5.

I had some tactile switches before that at first were nice but soon became an annoyance rather quickly. Now with not only a complete switch-out (pun intended) my first mechanical keyboard is seeing new function and life. Typing is a bit to get used to now that it's far quieter than before, making fast typing far more possible and without bothering everyone at night. Cost of four boxes left me with a surplus of switches but I feel it doesn't hurt to have spares just in case, especially at the price, and the feel of each switch has been soft but steady. Haven't had a bad switch so far, great seeing quality control is intact.

Completely silent and easy to install. I have an Aula F108 Pro and they worked perfectly. Soft and quiet feel. I did have to order 3 to complete the keyboard but definitely worth the price.

Love these switches! They are very quiet and cushy! I will say, though, they were a bit to get used to. My other keyboard has red, quiet, switches that feel totally different. These have a bit more resistance to actuate, but once you get used to them, they are very pleasant to use!!

I’ve tried a lot of “silent” mechanical switches over the years, and most of them still have some kind of faint tick, scratch, or bottom-out noise. These EPOMAKER Sea Salt Silent switches are the first ones that are truly silent — like, actually silent. Once I swapped them into my board, the difference was night and day. You can type at full speed in the middle of the night without waking anyone, and there’s no clack, no spring ping, no rattle. It’s wild how stealthy they are. If you need a switch that’s genuinely quiet — not just “quieter than average” — these are absolutely perfect. Typing on them feels incredible. The pre-lubing is smooth and consistent across all the switches I tested; there’s no scratchiness, no gritty spots, and no need to spend hours hand-lubing unless you’re extremely picky. The linear travel feels soft and controlled, and the silencing pads at the top and bottom give each press a cushioned, buttery feel. It’s almost like pressing a premium laptop key, but with the satisfying stability of a mechanical switch. Pairing these with a good foam-filled board or a gasket-mounted case turns the whole setup into a whisper-quiet dream. Build quality is top-tier as well. They’re true 5-pin switches, the housings feel solid, and they fit snugly into the PCB without wobbling. Even after intense typing sessions and gaming, they remain consistent. I’ve tried them in both hot-swap boards and soldered builds, and they’ve performed flawlessly in both scenarios. Honestly, if your main priority is silence — whether for late-night typing, shared office spaces, or living with someone who hates keyboard noise — these switches are a game changer. They exceeded every expectation I had, and I’m already planning to buy another set for my backup board.

These are ideal for silent keys! They make little sound, are very soft to type on and easily fit. I was gifted a mechanical keyboard, but the keys were too loud, so this was absolutely perfect!

I can’t even begin to describe how good, silent and comfortable these switches are. I purchased them for a new mechanical keyboard and couldn’t be happier. Some people could find them “mushy”, though, but for me that’s okay. Perfect for an office environment and solid for the value

Leds shine through just fine, no need for modding with flat snips for my Ajazz keyboard and actually dead silent with a decent feel. Photo shows three supposedly silent key switches. The one on the left is silent but they are failing, the middle one is supposed to be a silent but tactile click but it's loud and the feel is bad. These ones are the one on the right.

Son switches muy silenciosos, el recorrido se siente bien, tal vez algo que no me encanto es que al fondo del switch se siente una sensación un tanto gomosa. Pese a eso los compre para que fuesen silenciosos ya que vengo de unos switches red y a veces molesto a mi compañero de cuarto, me agradeció el que haya cambiado de switches cuando me desvelo programando jejeje. Otra cosa y es que no me fije si venían prelubricados o no, yo creo que no porque en algunos se siente un poco rugoso, pero es algo a lo que debes poner mucha atención, si no te fijas en eso ni al caso.

Installed the switches on a Keychron Q1 Pro keyboard and I'm impressed. These are the quietest mechanical switches I have tried. The switches have 5 pins and a box mount, this seems to add a lot of stability to larger keycaps like space and enter key. The packaging for these is also good, the keys are individually protected so there were no bent pins. These switches to me seem like a great replacement to Cherry MX black and Gateron black switches that I have been using before. The Sea Salts need roughly similar amount of force, but are noticeably more stable and quiet. The longevity of the switches is too early to comment on, but if these live up the manufacturers claims I can highly recommend.
