Upgrade your mechanical keyboard experience with stabilizers designed in-house by Mode. Stabilisers prevent rocking on longer keys such as Shift, Enter, Backspace and Spacebar. They are a small but crucial piece to building a keyboard that performs flawlessly.

• Thoughtful Design: We took a no-frills approach to design stabilisers that seamlessly blend into your keyboard, enhancing your building and typing experience without any distractions or headache.
• Smooth Performance: Simple, durable Nylon construction. Polished interiors and exteriors for less friction.
• Consistent Quality: Thoroughly inspected for flatness to avoid any unwanted sounds caused by bent wires.
• Protected in Transit: Packaged in a durable tray to prevent wire bending during shipping.

This initial release is colour-matched with the Anthracite switches and keycaps.
