Gazzew U4T Boba Tactile Switches
Restock expected by June 24. Sold in packs of 10.
Gazzew's super thocky Boba U4T switches are here. I like to think of them as a Holy Panda's more sane cousin with a nicely rounded but slightly less extreme bump, better QC, and minimal/sensible factory lube. They feature a longer stem post for an earlier bottom out and that signature thock we all know and love.
Housing Material
These housings are a secret plastic blend of plastic that is softer and smoother than nylon, resulting in an excellent thocky sound profile.
Spring Info & Factory Lubing
The stock springs are a mid weight 62/68g Korean spring, so there is no need to swap for quality/tolerance reasons.
Boba tactiles also feature a redesigned leaf made specifically for tactiles - allowing for that sweet sweet bump and virtually no leaf ping. The springs are donut-dipped in lube to prevent ping, and the leaves are lightly lubed - the sliders are completely dry.
Lubing Recommendation
For brush lubing, I suggest a light lubricant like TriboSys 3203. Coat the stem (but not the tactile legs) with a light coat.
For those interested in trying the Gazzew Method, pick up some Loob-3G in a dropper bottle.
