Cherry MX2A Orange Switch (10 per pack)

Cherry

At the Thocc Exchange we are on a mission to make both new innovations, and our classics, available at affordable pricing. This is the latest MX2A Cherry Orange Linear switch featuring the MX2A lubing technology on the spring and stem. This switch sounds plenty good enough to be used stock and feels great. Cherry calls this the revival of a long lost legend - I call it the MX Black that doesn't require total disassembly!

The CHERRY MX ORANGE is another edition to CHERRY’s line-up of community switches. The original switch had been manufactured by CHERRY’s Japanese partner Hirose, became a rare collector’s item today and has been in demand by the enthusiast community for a long time. This reissue of an old classic holds all the improvements of the MX2A generation to revive this legendary key switch in a modern approach.

If you wish to order de-lubed (dry) MX switches please remember these are made to order and come with a 1 week estimated dispatch time, though we will try to do this more quickly than 1 week. 

For broken in switches please allow 10 days as these need to move across London to the break in farm before being sent to you.
