=== Alps SKCM Cream Damped (Primary) === '''Specifications:''' * Type: Tactile, dampened * Actuation force: 70g ยฑ 10g * Pre-travel: 2.0mm * Total travel: 3.5mm * Dampening: Rubber bumpers on slider sides * Sound signature: Muted "thock" * Lifespan: 10 million actuations The Cream damped switches represented Alps Electric's response to workplace noise concerns. Small rubber inserts on either side of the slider cushioned both downstroke and upstroke impacts, creating a quieter typing experience while maintaining the tactile characteristics of the SKCM design. The dampening mechanism positioned the tactile point higher in the travel, occasionally leading users to mistake these for rubber dome switches.
