Hello,

This is probably a "dumb" question, but either I couldn't figure out the right words to use when running a Google search or the information should just be innately known:

Can a Keyboard that originally comes with ABS caps be replaced with a PBT set? I would assume so, being that they are just key caps, but one should never assume. I ask because I'd really like to get one of the KBT 60 or 75% keyboards, but they do not have the option for PBT on most of the sites I can buy from(US buyer).

Anyone care to enlighten me?

Yes you can definitely use PBT keycaps on a board that comes with ABS keycaps.
You need to pay attention to certain things like profile and modifier size differences though.

Yeah, what 002 said.

Basically ABS and PBT are just types of plastic. ABS gets shiny and somewhat ugly fairly fast and PBT has a rougher sort of texture and doesn't go shiny. Better to ask rather than outlay money on something that is of no use.

But you void your guarantee
