I purchased a set of Ducky thick PBT keycaps to replace the stock keycaps on a Filco Majestouch Ninja TKL. The majority of the Ducky keycaps were a breeze to install, and fit perfectly. The only exception is backspace, which appears to be catching on the front side of the keycap. If I press it straight down, it meets a hard resistance before bottoming out. To get the key to bottom out, I can either press down significantly harder at the point of resistance, or shift the keycap slightly toward me (which appears to route the keycap around the obstruction, making it go down smoothly).
I have the plastic stabilizer inserts oriented the same way they were with the stock keycaps (with the slightly longer / extended side pointing toward the back side of the keycap). This is the same way I have them oriented with the spacebar, enter and shift keys as well (and they all fit perfectly).
Anyway, I’ve been using mechanical keyboards for a couple of years now, but this is my first keycap upgrade (i.e. I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to keycaps).
Does anybody know what might be causing this / the best way to fix it? My first inclination would be that the Ducky keycaps are simply too thick, but it seems a bit odd to me that only one key would be too thick / every other key fits perfectly (unless it's some sort of manufacturing defect / tolerance issue).
Thanks
