Gateron Smoothie Switches

The Gateron Smoothie Switch is a premium linear mechanical switch designed for an ultra-smooth keystroke and clean sound profile. Engineered with a full POM construction—housing, stem, and everything in between—the Smoothie lives up to its name with a naturally slick and consistent travel, especially when combined with its factory pre-lubing.

Its tight housing tolerances, long spring, and self-lubricating materials make it a favourite for typists and gamers who prioritise a quiet, polished feel with minimal wobble and friction.
