TTC Tiger Standard 45g

The TTC Tiger Standard 45g is a cheap factory-lubed linear with a short 1.08mm actuation and a surprisingly clean, low-wobble feel. My full review.

Frequently asked

How heavy is the TTC Tiger Standard?

It actuates at 45g and bottoms out around 55g, so it sits in the light-to-medium linear band. The short 1.08mm pre-travel makes it feel quicker than the numbers suggest.

Does it need lube out of the box?

Not really. It ships factory-lubed and the spring is already quiet, so I'd type on it stock first and only break out the brush if you want to chase a deeper bottom-out.

Is it a good budget switch?

For the money it's hard to fault. The PC-over-POM/Nylon housing keeps things smooth and reasonably full without the scratch you'd expect at this price.
