The Gateron X mold is a provable, completely brand-new bottom housing mold. Each bottom housing comes with an X engraving on the bottom as well as polished interiors where the stem contacts the housing.
Polishing reduces surface roughness, decreasing the friction coefficient of the material. This leads to a smoother contact between the stem and the bottom housing without any lube.
For this initial run, Gateron X comes in the classic nylon-blend milky top, nylon black bottom, and bright yellow POM stem. These stems differ from the traditional Gateron Yellows and are from the Gateron Pro line-up.
These stems were also polished prior to this production run.
Specifications:
- Materials: Nylon-blend top, nylon bottom, POM stem
- 50g actuation,
- 65g bottom out,
- stainless steel spring
- Not factory lubed
- Approx £0.55p each (inc VAT)
Notes: The polished areas make it slippery to grip, this is not factory lube but rather the smooth polished surface. The polished surface also makes oil-based lubricants less effective. Higher viscosity lube is suggested, e.g. 205g0 or 205g2.
