[IC] Krytox GPL 225 - reopen!
« on: Mon, 09 July 2018, 00:48:52 »
Depends on IC I might have a limed access (1kg) to Krytox GPL225.
The price depends on results, as it might happen that people prefer 204/205.

UPDATE 10.07.2018
Unfortunately, my supplier got an information that his Krytox delivery will be a bit postponed (late August/early September). I hope that somehow I will be able to manage the group buy before October.

Sorry Guys!

UPDATE 23.07.2018

Hi folks!

It's my first group buy on the board but I do my best to make it run smoothly for each side.

any kind of feedback is welcome

---

Krytox GPL 225 is like GPL 205 with some Anti-Corrosion and Anti-Rust supplementation.

Group Buy ends: 31 July 2018, midnight UTC

Group Buy link: https://goo.gl/forms/VqQV4chA8ObC15Co2

Payment method: PayPal / Revoult

Payments: will be collected between 1st and 5th of August.

Order ship out: depends on GB results, ETA max 2 weeks from 1st of August.

Krytox GPL 225 and prices:

3g = $3.00

4g = $3.72

5g = $4.50

10g = $8.10

15g = $11.85

20g = $15.80

25g = $19.38

30g = $23.10

40g = $30.60

50g = $37.00

Shipping Cost

I send packages only with tracking number and prices depends on destination country.

GLOBAL Express

- EU 12 USD
- World Wide 14 USD

Registered priority mail

- EU 6 USD
- Word Wide 6 USD

There is also a chance for a "secured registered priority mail" but the cost depends on mail value - it's the only way to get a refund in case of losing the package in transport.

Packaging

Krytox GPL 225 will be packaged in small polypropylene vials (5 or 10 ml).

I'd consider getting some for the railings of my sunroof, but from the link you posted, I don't see the benefit of 225 over 205.

Edit: don't see the benefit for switches that is.

If I have to be honest, me neither ;D
I assume that the price will be a bit lower than for e.g. 205, I was digging through /r/mm /r/mk, this forum, youtube and half google and I have found nothing about 225 use case in scope of mechanical keyboards, so I will treat it as an experiment or testing ground.

What makes you think the price will be lower?

Can we get pics of what this lubricant looks like on a switch stem/housing?

I would like to know more about the consistency and use for this variant.

Sure thing!



So it's similar to GPL 205 in look and fell.

From the specification, you can read that it's anit-corrosion grade.
I do not have many different switches, but I can lube a couple mx ping (silent reds), zealios 67g or gaterons browns (also silenced).

Huh I've just noticed that I'm not able to start a new thread on GB section, so I'm going to update this thread.

The GB thread probably needs to be submitted and reviewed by the moderator team for approval. Try PMing Photoelectric!
