Gasket Mount

A gasket mount keyboard is a type of mechanical keyboard that uses a gasket material, such as silicone or neoprene, to create a “floating” mount for the switches. The gasket is placed between the plate and the PCB, which allows for a more flexible and cushioned typing experience.

This design allows for more flex and cushioning, which can result in a softer typing experience.

Double Shot Plate Mount Stabiliser

The stabiliser comes with POM housing and POM+TPU stem to minimise rattle and pings. They are Akko proprietary and meant to provide better out of box experiences.

The keyboard also supports screw-in stabilisers.

VIA

VIA enables you to easily create macros and remap your keyboard layout to quickly access any function in any program. You can modify keys and customise your keyboard to suit your needs using the VIA software.

Please note: The JST connector with the label “this side up” should be oriented outward against the PCB, as shown in the picture.
