The travel for the four directions is 0.25mm, while the centre travel is 0.15mm. The actuation force varies, raging from 270gf down to 160gf for the four directions and from 500gf down to 260gf for the centre cap. You can design your own keycap experience with the MU Series are these navigational tactile switches are created without standard caps. For those who prioritise precision there are versions available with positioning pins for more accurate mounting.
