Gateron Milky Yellow Linear Switch

Widely celebrated as one of the best budget linear switches in the custom mechanical keyboard hobby, the Gateron Milky Yellow offers incredible value without compromising on acoustics. If you are looking to achieve a deep, signature "thocky" sound profile on a budget, these iconic linear switches are the perfect choice for your next build.

Available in three distinct variants—Full Milky, Milky Top Black Bottom, and Full Nylon—each selection offers subtle variations in housing materials to fine-tune your keyboard's acoustic and tactile feedback.

Because these switches come unlubed from the factory, they serve as the ultimate blank canvas for keyboard modders. Applying a custom layer of Krytox 205g0 lube and stabilizer grease transforms them into incredibly smooth, premium-sounding linears that easily compete with switches twice their price.
