Cherry MX2A Blue

Switches · Clicky · 50 g · MX · 10 per pack

The clicky member of Cherry's MX2A refresh, with the familiar two-part click jacket. It's the loudest of the three factory Cherry switches and better suited to a keyboard you don't share a room with.

Some specs from reviews or retailers · sources

Cherry's datasheet gives 50 cN actuation, a 60 cN click point, 2.2 mm pre-travel and 4 mm total travel. Cherry's clicky switches ship unlubed. Mechboards lists it as 'Cherry MX Blue' without saying whether it's the MX2A or the older MX1A; the two are the same size and wiring. 5-pin is assumed from the MX2A Red and Brown packs and not confirmed for Blue.
