GamerFinger was the first company to introduce a game-changing approach to pushbuttons, utilizing a mechanical keyboard switch to customize both input force and feedback. The unique construction of the GamerFinger HBFS-G3 - a redesigned successor to the G2 - improves on the previous year's implementation to better fit in modern Fightsticks and arcade control panels.
SCREWBUTTON DESIGN, COMPATIBILITY WITH SNAPBUTTON-FRIENDLY PANELS
The HBFS-G3 by Gamerfinger incorporates the durability, sensitivity and adjustability of the incredibly popular Cherry MX™ mechanical keyboard microswitch into a unique, quiet 30mm pushbutton. Redesigned for a much smoother install, GamerFinger listened to some feedback regarding their incredibly firm tabs, and the difficulty to remove once inserted into a pushbutton hole. The included plastic ring will keep the pushbutton in place when installed in a wood control panel. The screwbutton ring will accomodate thicknesses up to .5 inches.
The screwbutton ring is also compatible with a metal panel. Unlike the G2 model, the ring screws all the way to the top of the rim. This allows you to screw to a thin metal panel without concern of a loose fit. Additionally, the ring is flush with the button rim, promoting an easier install into metal panel configurations than other screwbuttons.
SILENT OPERATION
Should you still need or want to bottom out your button presses, each HBFS is outfitted with a foam pad that dampens the sound, offering up to 20dB less noise than stock Sanwa OBSF buttons.
10X MORE DURABLE THAN SANWA RG
Sanwa's RG microswitches are known to last longer than the standard SW-68 switches. Thanks to the mechanical key switch, HBFS possesses a much longer lifespan through use of mechanical switches - 50 million operations versus 500,000 - for about the same price as as the RG.
COMPATIBLE WITH .110 QUICK CONNECTORS. EASY KEY SWITCH SWAPPING.
Replacing your buttons with HBFS-G3 pushbuttons is simple as swapping out Sanwa OBSF pushbuttons. No special wires or adapters are needed. Replacing the key switches is also quite easy, requiring little effort to open and pop out the switch.
