Mechanical be quiet! Silent Tactile Switches
Each keystroke is snappy, precise, and whisper-quiet:
- Silent tactile black switches, pre-lubricated to reduce friction and noise
- PA66 nylon housing for a muted, dampened sound profile
- POM stem for smooth actuation with crisp tactility
- Lubricated stabilizers under large keys (such as Space and Enter) to eliminate rattling
- Cushioned stabilizer-to-PCB contact points for extra sound dampening

Rule of 3 – Triple-Layered Dampening
Three sound-absorbing layers ensure Dark Mount lives up to the “be quiet!” name:
- Foam layer between switches and PCB
- Foam layer under the PCB

Any potential echoing noises are immediately muted, delivering a deep, quiet sound profile.
