    In the days when square guides were not yet available, the
    This round guide is reminiscent of the old lever style when square guides were not yet available.
  3. Yellow: Octagonal guide: Same as Octagonal guide GT-Y
    Octagonal guide provides clear input in 8 directions.
  4. Red: Special square guide with protrusions in 8 places
    Seimitsu Kogyo's guide with an input feel similar to the NOBI-STD lever.
    The depression makes the input in 8 directions clear like an octagonal guide, while
    The diagonal input is similar to that of a normal square guide.
  5. Blue: Blue: A guide with gentle indentations in two places.
    Use when you want to input horizontal or vertical direction securely.
    For horizontal direction, it can be used to prevent accidental jumps in 2D fighting games, etc.

P.S. pipe actuator

  4. Red: Thick actuator
    Approx. 16.7mm at switch push, approx. 12.0mm at guide contact, slightly thicker
    The guide contact area is the same as the 12mm of the OTTO Series, but
    The guide is similar to the 12mm of the OTTO Series, but the switch presser is wider.
