Metallic paint texture catalyst mechanical keyboard keycaps

Taptempo Catalyst — The Periodic Table, Key by Key

Science meets craft in the Taptempo Catalyst keycap set. Inspired by the periodic table of elements and the language of chemistry, every keycap is packed with element symbols, atomic data, chemical formulas, and physics equations — a tribute to the curious minds who build, code, and create.

Two Colorways, One Vision

• Metal Paint — Bold black-and-white split colorway with an industrial, high-contrast aesthetic. Dark modifier keys anchor the set while light alphas keep it readable and sharp.
• Pearl Paint — Clean all-white finish with a soft pearl texture. Paired against a chalkboard formula backdrop, it channels the quiet intensity of a laboratory notebook.

What Makes Catalyst Stand Out

• Element-Inspired Legends — Each key carries element symbols, atomic weights, and scientific notation as sub-legends — detail that rewards a closer look
• Cherry Profile — Sculpted rows with a comfortable ergonomic curve, ideal for long work or study sessions
• PBT Material — Thick, durable, and resistant to shine; legends stay crisp through years of daily use
• Dye-Sublimation Printing — Legends are infused into the keycap surface, not printed on top — they won’t fade or peel
• Complete Kit — Base Kit, Supplement+ extras, and full Numpad coverage included

Kit Contents
