## Long description

Gateron Black Switches Glorious PC Gaming Race Linear Silent 120 pcs are linear mechanical switches designed for a smooth and quiet typing and gaming experience. Each pack contains 120 switches with a black housing and a linear, silent actuation profile. Manufactured by Gateron in China, these switches are compatible with a wide range of custom mechanical keyboards, including the Glorious Modular Mechanical Keyboard, and are SMD-LED friendly with a rated lifespan of 50 million actuations.
Advantages
These Gateron Black switches offer a consistently smooth keystroke with minimal friction and no tactile bump, providing uniform travel for both typing and rapid keypresses. The silent construction reduces acoustic feedback compared with standard linear switches, making them suitable for shared workspaces and streaming setups. SMD-LED compatibility and a robust lifecycle rating make them a practical choice for custom builds and long-term use.

How to use
Install these Gateron Black switches into a compatible mechanical keyboard PCB or hot-swap socket by aligning the cross (+) stem with the keycap and the switch pins with the PCB openings. For soldered PCBs, solder both pins securely to ensure reliable electrical contact. For hot-swap sockets, press the switch straight into the socket until it seats fully. Pair with compatible MX-style keycaps and, if desired, use stabilizers on larger keys for consistent feel. No special drivers are required; switches function as the physical actuation mechanism for each key.
Usage recommendations
 For optimal performance, test switches before installation to confirm smooth travel and consistent actuation. Consider applying light lubricant to the spring and stem if you require an even quieter or smoother feel; use lubricants formulated for mechanical switches and apply sparingly. When assembling a keyboard, ensure stabilizers are properly lubed and mounted to reduce rattle on larger keys. Store unused switches in a dry environment to avoid contamination before installation.
