Top-Tier Heavy Tactile Clicky Switch
Kailh BOX Jade Heavy Clicky
Sick of mushy linears with zero feedback? Or tired of cheap, rattly classic blue switches that eventually suffer from dead clicks and spring ping?
If you crave an authoritative, punchy tactile confirmation but find the 90gf Navy switches just a bit too heavy for marathon sessions, Kailh delivers the absolute "Golden Sweet Spot" of clickies—the Kailh BOX Jade.
Engineered for hardcore typing enthusiasts, it is armed with an extra-thick Click-Bar mechanism. At an agile 1.8mm pre-travel, it delivers a massive 75gf peak tactile bump. Every single keystroke erupts into the loudest, crisper, and most aggressive "click" in the game, completely obliterating accidental misinputs. Backed by Kailh’s legendary BOX dust/waterproof structure, a high-clear PC top housing, and a 19mm extended spring, it’s not just a physical aimbot for your typing accuracy—it’s an indestructible mechanical weapon certified for 80 million explosive keystrokes.

Core Advantages: The Undisputed King of Heavy Clickies
We know you reject mushy, vague typing experiences. You crave undeniable acoustic and tactile feedback on every single press. The BOX Jade was built to satisfy that extreme desire for control without causing instant fatigue.
The Problem: Weak Tactility & Ping
Standard blue switches (around 50gf) have a weak, vague tactile bump. They produce a scratchy, scattered noise accompanied by maddening metallic spring ping, ruining your fast-typing rhythm.
The Problem: Muffled & Dead Clicks
Open-style clicky switches are extremely fragile. A little dust, crumbs, or a spilled drink can easily ruin the metal contacts, resulting in dead keys or muffled, inconsistent clicks.
The Problem: Dim RGB & Stem Wobble
Heavy typing requires a rock-solid base. 3-pin switches wobble heavily on hot-swap plates. Plus, opaque housings swallow your board's RGB lighting, making it look dull and cheap.
✨ Kailh BOX Jade: 75gf Thick Click-Bar, BOX sealed protection, and 5-Pin High-Clear PC base. The ultimate authoritative endgame.
End Weak Feedback
75gf Peak & Thick Click-Bar Symphony
Aggressive Tuning
Features a uniquely upgraded Thick Click-Bar mechanism. It generates a massive 75±15gf peak tactile force (with a 50gf actuation), establishing itself as the absolute heavyweight champion of tactile feedback.
Absolute Advantage
Delivers an intensely addictive "authoritative" feel. The bi-directional click on both the downstroke and upstroke is incredibly clean, loud, and piercing, totally obliterating accidental misinputs.
Typing Benefit
Every keystroke feels like firing an old-school vintage typewriter. The undeniable physical confirmation straight-up boosts your typing accuracy and creates an insanely rhythmic flow.
End Dead Keys & Dust Failure
BOX Sealed Cabin & 80M Lifespan
Hardcore Architecture
Armed with Kailh's core patented BOX sealed cabin technology. It fully isolates the electrical metal leaf inside a micro "fortress," separating it entirely from the physical click mechanism.
Absolute Advantage
Provides IP54-like protection. Whether you're snacking at your desk or accidentally spill your coffee, the core contacts remain completely shielded from dust, crumbs, and moisture.
Setup Benefit
Fearless durability. The sound and feel remain flawless for years. Backed by a staggering 80 million keystroke lifespan, making it the most rugged, reliable weapon on your desk.
End Dim RGB & Stem Wobble
High-Clear PC Top & 5-Pin Stability
Premium Build
Equipped with a fully transparent, optical-grade PC (Polycarbonate) top housing, a self-lubricating POM stem, and an ultra-secure 5-Pin PCB mount base.
Absolute Advantage
The 5-pin design locks the switch dead-tight into the PCB, meaning even under your 75gf aggressive typing, the keycaps remain rock-solid with zero horizontal wobble.
Aesthetic Benefit
Enjoy heavy-duty tactile feedback while basking in a dazzling light show. The High-Clear PC top acts as a lens, amplifying your underglow RGB evenly across the board.

Both use Kailh's signature Click-Bar mechanism. However, the standard BOX White uses a regular click-bar resulting in a medium 55gf tactile bump and a crisper, lighter sound. The BOX Jade utilizes an upgraded "Thick Click-Bar", which skyrockets the tactile peak to a massive 75gf and produces a much deeper, louder, and thunderous click. If you want maximum feedback and volume, the Jade is the undisputed king.
75gf is undeniably a substantial tactile peak, providing an "authoritative" feel that makes accidental misinputs almost impossible. While it is lighter than the 90gf Navy switch, it is still heavier than standard blues. If you prefer breezy switches, this might cause some fatigue during marathon sessions. However, for heavy-handed typists, this strong resistance actually improves typing rhythm, accuracy, and flow, providing an immensely satisfying typing experience.
Kailh's patented BOX structure fully encases the electrical metal leaf inside an isolated micro-cabin, completely separating it from the Click-Bar mechanism. This provides IP54-like protection, physically blocking desk dust, pet hair, and minor beverage splashes. For clicky switches especially, this perfectly solves the dreaded "muffled click" or "dead key" issue caused by dust interference.
Absolutely not, and we strongly advise against it! Kailh applies a highly precise, micro-amount of factory lube to essential friction points (like the rails) to ensure smooth travel. If you forcefully open the switch and add thick lube, it will easily gum up the Thick Click-Bar mechanism, resulting in a sticky, muffled, and dead click. They are perfectly tuned to be used straight out of the box.
Yes, you can! The two extra plastic legs on the bottom of the switch provide extra stem stability and eliminate horizontal wobble on plateless PCBs. If your PCB only supports 3-pin switches, simply use nail clippers or flush cutters to snip off those two side plastic legs flat against the base. They will fit perfectly, and doing so will not void your warranty or affect the switch's electrical functionality in any way.
