Mil-Max Sockets (packs of 10)

Product Description:
Why pay boutique prices for basic functionality? These low profile Sockets are a cost-effective but high quality alternative to US made Mill-Max sockets. Perfect for anyone looking to convert their solder-only PCB into a hot-swappable setup without draining their modding budget.

These sockets sport a 0.2mm flange which is narrower than our previous Mouser sockets, and reduced length which eliminates PCB shorting issues caused by some longer sockets which touch the keyboard case and cause shorting on heavier typing sessions. 

Please be aware that because of the tighter socket fit, Kailh and Cherry switches in particular can pop out occasionally and will require re-soldering back in. 

Despite the lower price point, these sockets maintain strong mechanical grip and reliable contact. 

Important note - how many recommended for board formats - always buy a few extra:

65% - 140
75% - 160
