What is lubricant? What is lubricating oils and greases?
Mechanical keyboards are popular among gamers and typists for their tactile feedback and durability. However, a common problem users encounter when using mechanical keyboards is the need for proper lubrication. Keyboard lubricants, switch grease, and mechanical keyboard lubricants are all products designed to solve this problem.
To combat this problem, FRTLUBE special developed one series keyboard lube and switch grease, are designed to reduce friction, minimize wear and improve the overall feel of your key switches.
The ultimate solution for enhancing your mechanical keyboard experience. Our specially formulated PTFE grease is designed to provide optimal lubrication for mechanical keyboard switches, ensuring a smooth, quiet typing experience.
Say goodbye to annoying noises generated by metal parts in the shaft body, such as spring sound, shrapnel sound, and friction sound between the shaft body and the bottom case guide rail. FRTLUBE Mechanical Keyboard Grease effectively eliminates these distractions, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in your work or game without any interruptions.
Our keyboard grease not only reduces noise, but also helps “break in” new mechanical keyboards, giving them a comfortable and familiar feel from the first time they are used. Additionally, the lubrication provided by our greases helps extend the life of your switch, ensuring long-lasting performance and durability.
FRTLUBE Mechanical Keyboard Grease is highly stable and non-migrating, making it ideal for use with linear switches or Topre keyboards. As a Teflon grease manufacturer, our expertise ensures our products meet the highest quality and performance standards.
How Long Does Lube Last Mechanical Keyboard
The lifespan of the lubricant on a mechanical keyboard depends largely on the type and quality of lubricant used, as well as the frequency and intensity of keyboard use. Generally speaking, a well-lubricated mechanical keyboard will maintain its smoothness and consistency for a longer period of time, usually anywhere from a few months to a few years.
High-quality lubricants such as Krytox and our FRTLUBE Teflon grease are known for their durability, retaining their effectiveness longer than lower-grade alternatives. In addition, application technology plays a crucial role in determining the service life of lubricants. Applying lubricant correctly and evenly to your keyboard switches ensures their long-term effectiveness.
In addition, the way the keyboard is used will also affect the service life of the lubricant. Heavy typists or gamers who regularly use a mechanical keyboard may experience lubricant depleting faster than casual users. Over time, continued friction and pressure on the switch will gradually wear away the lubricant, requiring reapplication to maintain desired smoothness and performance.
In summary, the life of the lubricant on a mechanical keyboard depends on a variety of factors, including the quality of the lubricant, application technique, and frequency of keyboard use. While high-quality lubricants and proper use can prolong the effectiveness of the lubricant, heavy use may require more frequent reapplication. Ultimately, regular maintenance and relubrication can help ensure that your mechanical keyboard continues to provide a smooth and satisfying typing experience for an extended period of time.
