TTC Brother V2
Clicky tactile mechanical keyboard switches
TTC Brother V2 combines a tactile bump with a torsion-spring click mechanism. This five-pin mechanical switch uses a POM stem, PC housings and double-gold contacts, with 1.6mm nominal pre-travel for builders who want a clearly audible, tactile keypress.

A click with a tactile bump
Brother V2 is designed around a torsion-spring sound mechanism and a 58gf nominal tactile force. Choose it because you enjoy audible feedback, not because you need a quiet keyboard.
Inside the V2 design
TTC lists a 22mm spring, damping leaf spring, POM stem and PC upper and lower housings. Double-gold contacts complete the construction.
Check the board before the build
The five-pin configuration requires a compatible mechanical-switch PCB. TTC specifies 3.7mm total travel and a manufacturer-rated 80 million keystrokes.

Before you choose
Is Brother V2 suitable for a quiet shared office?
Its audible click is intentional. A silent switch is the more suitable starting point if avoiding disturbance is your priority.
Is Brother V2 the same as Blue Clicky?
No. They are separate TTC products. The Brother V2 force, travel and construction figures should not be applied to the Blue Clicky model.
Will these work in my keyboard?
Check your PCB socket, switch pin layout, plate and keycap compatibility before ordering. These are mechanical switches, not drop-in replacements for Hall Effect or optical switches. A soldered keyboard requires soldering work to replace its switches.
