When it comes to personalizing and enhancing the aesthetics of a mechanical keyboard, POM Jelly keycaps are a great way to do it. Keycaps not only give a unique look, they also influence the overall feel of typing on a mechanical keyboard. Polyoxymethylene (POM) is a material that has gained in popularity in recent years for keycaps. POM is a thermoplastic material known for its durability, strength and resistance to wear.

But what is a POM gel keycap?

POM jelly keycaps are a type of keycap made from POM. The term "jelly" is used to describe the translucent appearance of the keycaps, which produce a colorful, vibrant effect when backlit. POM jelly keycaps are also known for their smooth, even texture, offering a comfortable and satisfying typing experience. They are available in a wide range of colors and profiles. So users can customize their keyboard to suit their preferred style.

One of the outstanding features of POM Jelly Keycaps is their compatibility with different types of switches. Whether you have a Cherry MX, Topre or Gateron switch keyboard, you can use POM Jelly Keycaps to replace existing caps.

Benefits of Using POM Jelly Keycaps

POM jelly keycaps are a reasonable choice for mechanical keyboards, thanks to their durability, texture, aesthetics and compatibility with different types of switches. Let's take a closer look at the benefits of using POM jelly caps.

POM is a thermoplastic material renowned for its durability. It resists wear and tear, making POM jelly caps an excellent option for those who use their mechanical keyboards frequently. POM jelly keycaps retain their texture and finish for long periods.

POM jelly keycaps have a smooth, even texture that offers a comfortable typing experience. The surface of keycaps is softer and less grainy than ABS keycaps, allowing your fingers to glide over the keys with less resistance. And because POM keycaps are stiffer than PBT keycaps, they produce a more pleasant sound when typing.

One of the main reasons people choose POM Jelly keycaps is their aesthetics. They are translucent and come in a wide variety of colors. When backlit, they produce a colorful, vibrant effect that can add a unique, elegant touch to any mechanical keyboard. What's more, POM Jelly keycaps can be engraved or printed with customized patterns or symbols.

POM Jelly keycaps are compatible with a variety of switch types, including Cherry MX, Topre and Gateron. This compatibility makes it easy to customize your keyboard with POM Jelly keycaps without worrying about compatibility issues.

POM Jelly keycaps are manufactured using "doubleshot" technology, which means that the captions and the keycap base are two separate pieces of plastic. The legends are a different color from the keycap base, making them more resistant to fading and wear. This feature is important for gamers and intensive users who tend to wear out keycaps over time.

POM jelly keycaps are highly resistant to oil, making them less likely to discolor and stain. They are also highly resistant to wear, making them more durable than other types of keycaps.

 Jelly Kecaps lifespan

Based on the search results, POM keycaps are known to be tough and durable. The lifespan of POM keycaps can vary depending on factors like frequency of use and maintenance, but they are generally considered to be long-lasting. In one forum post, a user mentioned that they have had POM keycaps for over five years with no visible wear.

Another source mentions that double-shot POM keycaps are more resistant to fading and wear compared to keycaps made from other materials. While there is no specific information on the exact lifespan of POM Jelly keycaps, they are generally considered to be one of the more durable options for mechanical keyboards.

The conclusion is that POM Jelly keycaps are a good investment for users of mechanical keyboards. POM material is known for its robustness and durability, making POM keycaps highly resistant to wear and tear. Jelly keycaps, on the other hand, are translucent and give keyboards a colorful, fun and unique aesthetic. POM Jelly keycaps combine these two features, making them an excellent choice for people who want durable yet visually appealing keycaps.
