Linear switches are characterized by their smooth, continual travel when operated: They can be pressed unhindered, with no clicking noise and no haptic feedback as with tactile or "clicky" switches. They are therefore particularly interesting for gamers, but also for all users who prefer switches without click Aing noises.

Gateron CAP Milky Yellow
The Gateron CAP Milky Yellow are interesting for lovers of linear switches: They can be operated effortlessly, and, thanks to the lubrication, they have a sound which is particularly calm and deep. There is no click at the actuation point. The 2 millimeters to the actuation point and the required operating force of 50 grams ensure a pleasant typing experience without the physically felt feedback experienced with tactile switches.

Compatible and Adaptable
All switches have three pins for a wide-ranging compatibility. They are also all compatible with commercially available keycaps. With 35 switches per package, about the right number of switches can be acquired for any keyboard size, and there will be a few more switches left over as replacements if ever needed.
