Hey there.

 

Yep. The GK61x/GK61xs PCB is compatible with both PCB-mounted (5-pin) and plate-mounted (3-pin) switches. Most, if not all, Kailh BOX switches are plate-mounted. 👍

Kailh BOX Ancient Gray for reference. "3-pin" refers to the two metal pins, plus the plastic nub ("pin") in the middle.
