The HMX Hydra tactile switch, designed by XLLAB, features a large, almost D-shaped tactile bump similar to the Retro J. It aims to replicate the classic Gateron Type R’s D-shaped bump, while adding HMX’s signature clacky sound profile and excellent stem wobble control. Thanks to its P2 bottom housing, the Hydra is one of the clackiest tactile switches in the HMX lineup to date.

Sold in packs of 10s.
