Mechanical switch Ducky TTC Gold Pink DSK110-NPA1 linear 37g actuation force

Ducky TTC Gold Pink DSK110-NPA1 is a linear mechanical switch engineered for keyboards that require a smooth, consistent keystroke. With a 37 g actuation force, this switch delivers low-resistance operation and uninterrupted linear travel without a tactile bump or audible click. It is designed to be compatible with standard MX-style switch sockets, making it suitable for custom keyboard builds and straightforward switch replacements when a light, linear feel is preferred.

Advantages

The switch provides a uniform linear travel profile and low actuation force, which can reduce finger fatigue during prolonged typing or gaming sessions. Its construction aims for stable performance and predictable keypresses, which helps maintain consistent input accuracy. Compatibility with MX-style sockets simplifies installation and hot-swap replacement in many modern mechanical keyboards.

Suitable for

• Light-touch typing where smooth key travel is desired
• Fast-paced gaming that benefits from low actuation force
• Custom mechanical keyboard builds and switch modifications
• Replacing heavier or tactile switches to achieve a linear feel

Key specifications

• Switch type: linear
• Actuation force: 37 g
• Travel behavior: smooth, no tactile bump
• Compatibility: MX-style switch sockets (standard mechanical keyboard mounts)
• Typical applications: desktop keyboards, custom key switch sets

How to use

Install the Ducky TTC Gold Pink switch into a compatible MX-style socket or PCB following manufacturer guidance for your keyboard. If your keyboard supports hot-swap sockets, align the switch pins with the socket and press until it seats firmly. For soldered PCBs, desolder the existing switch before installing and solder the replacement switch leads securely. After installation, test each key in your operating system or keyboard configuration software to ensure correct actuation and function.

Recommendations

For best results, pair these 37 g linear switches with keycaps rated for mechanical switches and consider lubricating stabilizers or switch housings if you want to further reduce friction and noise. When installing in hot-swap keyboards, handle pins carefully to avoid bending; for soldered installations, ensure proper desoldering and soldering techniques to prevent PCB damage.
