Title: could cork work to silence switches?
Post by: zegonix on Fri, 30 January 2026, 03:36:21

i just had the thought of using cork instead of silicone to make switches silent. though one would probably have to be careful not to get lube on the cork. but i wonder, whether it would feel softer or firmer on the bottom out, and whether it would be quieter or louder.

has anyone tried something of the sort? i guess with cork, one would not add it to the slider but the housing?

Maybe as dampening in the case, but I can't see it work in a switch.
