Tangerine
The Tangerines are the linear switch that will take your typing experience to the next level! With an incredibly smooth feel, each keystroke is a pleasure to type. In part, this is due to the UHWMPE housings, which is a rarity in the world of bespoke mechanical switches. We find a fairly high-pitched clack when typing on them.

Descriptors
When referring to the sound, a buttery switch implies a smooth and fluid keystroke experience. These switches provide a seamless, effortless, and uniform typing sensation.
When referring to a polished switch, this indicates a switch has a smooth and refined finish, resulting in a sleek typing experience. This is due to either materials used and/or due to factory lubing. You can expect reduced friction and smooth key travel with these switches.
High-pitched switches produce a sharp and crisp sound when pressed. If you do not like the more rich and bassy sound profiles of certain keyboard switches, be sure to pick higher-pitched ones.
Frictionless keyboard switches offer an extremely smooth and effortless typing experience, minimizing any sense of resistance or friction when pressing the keys. The switch offers a fluid travel.
