❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Ice Mint MX Switch pre‑lubed?▼
Yes. It comes factory pre‑lubed on rails, spring, and stem. Combined with POM's natural self‑lubrication, it's smooth out of the box and requires no additional lubing.
How does the 40gf feel compared to Cherry MX Red?▼
Cherry MX Red is 45gf, so Ice Mint is slightly lighter. The 20mm spring also gives it a snappier rebound. Many users find it more comfortable for long sessions.
Does the dustproof stem affect keycap compatibility?▼
Not at all. The MX dustproof stem uses the same cross‑shape as standard MX stems, so it works with all MX‑style keycaps.
Can I use these on a 3‑pin PCB?▼
Yes. The Ice Mint is a 5‑pin switch, but the two plastic positioning pins can be clipped off with flush cutters to fit 3‑pin PCBs without any issue.
What's the difference between this and standard Kailh Box switches?▼
Ice Mint is a traditional MX‑style switch (not BOX). It features a full POM housing, dustproof stem, and 20mm spring — tuned specifically for a light, smooth linear feel. It's a co‑development between FL·ESPORTS and Kailh.
How long will 50 million keystrokes last?▼
For an average user typing 10,000 keystrokes per day, 50M cycles equals over 13 years of use — more than enough for a lifetime.
