Overview

Theoretically unlimited durability

The Designed by GG Ironclad v2 is a high-end mechanical keyboard that offers you the possibility to hot-swap switches. This new version (v2) offers you full compatibility with 3 and 5 pin switches. By replacing the solder with an armature that makes electrical contact, the Ironclad v2 offers the ability to replace any switch by simply unclipping it and reclipping another. Not only can you customise to your liking, but you can also extend the life of the switch indefinitely by replacing only the most heavily used switches.

Unparalleled comfort

The Designed by GG Ironclad v2 is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Each switch in the keyboard has been lubricated with PFPE grease, improving glide, reducing noise and, most importantly, eliminating the resonance of mechanical keyboards. The PFPE-lubricated stabilizers, damped by a silicone pad, do not reflect any metallic echo. The noisy space bar will be a memory from another era.

And the PBT keys offer you increased resistance to abrasion. Unlike ABS keys, PBT is chemically inert and does not develop a greasy texture after prolonged contact with the skin. The key lettering is thermoformed. The letters on the keys are not just etched into the surface paint, but are formed by a plastic structure, running through the entire shell. This method guarantees that the lettering will last over time. With a thickness of 1.4mm instead of the standard 0.8mm, these keys are also much more durable.

Red Blood switches

The Ironclad v2 features customised and optimised switches, the Red Blood. Using a tenth of a micron-tuned mould and plastic from the German giant BASF, they offer perfect stability when typing. Delicately lubricated with Demon Blood, a PFPE-based grease, the Red Blood offers a virtually frictionless glide.

This makes them the ideal choice for people who want silence and fatigue-free typing.

Information provided by our tech department Please note: Red Blood is just a nickname. The manufacturer has deliberately chosen a white plunger in order to preserve the colourimetry of the RGB backlight as much as possible. However, the feeling in hand is that of a linear switch, usually coloured in red.

    A French must

    I've been using mechanical keyboards for at least fifteen years now, and I've tried at least twenty of them with all the switches there are. Well, this one takes me into another dimension, because the typing experience is so pleasant, the keyboard is truly premium in every way, with PBT keys to boot, and it's value for money that I've never seen before, and what's more, it's a French-designed product.
    I can only encourage you to buy products of this quality, and the reviews are virtually unanimous.

    Very happy with my purchase

    A very pleasant typing experience, a contained sound for a mechanical keyboard.

    In addition, it is a French brand.

    At the top

    I have been following the creator of this keyboard for several months now, and I have no regrets. It feels like a custom keyboard, a very good keyboard. I've been using it for several months now and I have no regrets.

    Price/quality ratio

    The pluses:
    Less expensive than Ducky Channel...
    Quiet typing
    touch
    Sober

    The cons :
    ...Not as good as ducky.
    The RGB's are located between the keys so they are reflected on the side of the keys.

    The RGB effect is not good and it's annoying when the key lights up and you have the reflection on the side of the key. I think it's really bad and that's why I returned it.
