• About the Leopold FC500
• The Leopold FC500 is a cornerstone of the mechanical keyboard enthusiast community — a tenkeyless (TKL) keyboard built with Leopold's legendary German engineering and attention to detail. The FC500R (Cherry MX Red switches) and FC500RC (Cherry MX Clear switches) represent the gold standard for precision typing and gaming. At $100-150+, the FC500 is a serious keyboard investment for discerning typists and collectors. Your FC500 deserves replacement feet that match its premium build quality.

Why FC500 Feet Deteriorate

• Original plastic wears smooth:
• Leopold's thin plastic feet become slick after months of use — keyboard shifts on desk during typing
• Loses grip immediately:
• Unlike premium keyboards with rubberized feet, the FC500's plastic feet provide minimal grip and wear quickly
• Premium keyboard, budget feet:
• A $150 keyboard deserves feet that match its quality — original feet undermine the investment
• Typing precision affected:
• Keyboard movement = inconsistent typing position = precision loss for enthusiasts

PETG Premium vs Original Leopold Feet

• Durability matched to investment:
• PETG engineering-grade plastic won't wear smooth like thin plastic — maintains grip indefinitely
• High-friction surface:
• Textured PETG grips your desk with authority — zero keyboard shift during intensive typing
• Quality that reflects Leopold heritage:
• Premium feet for a premium keyboard — respects the FC500's flagship status
• Stability = typing precision:
• Locked-down keyboard = consistent hand positioning = better accuracy and comfort
• Collector preservation:
• Restore your FC500 to like-new condition for collection or daily use
• For FC500 Enthusiasts & Collectors
• Invest in quality:
• You paid $100-150 for premium mechanics — your feet should be premium too
• Precision typing restored:
• Stable keyboard = consistent hand position = better typing feel
• Collection preservation:
• Keep your FC500 in showroom condition for display or daily use
• Enthusiast community standard:
• Leopold typists expect precision — your feet should deliver
• Installation Instructions
• Turn your Leopold FC500 upside down — you'll see two tilt feet (one at front, one at rear).
• Gently pry out the original feet using a flat tool (plastic spoon, card, or guitar pick).
• Clean any debris from the mounting holes on the keyboard base.
• Align each new PETG foot with its mounting hole and snap firmly into place — you should hear/feel a click.
• Flip the keyboard right-side up and test tilt angles — feet should lock smoothly at all positions.
• Place on your desk — your FC500 should sit completely stable and grip firmly without any movement.
