NEW YORK – September 03, 2026 -- Gaming peripheral maker ATTACK SHARK will release its new R86 HE Carbon Fiber Magnetic Switch Gaming Keyboard on September 7, 2026, targeting competitive players who want both speed and premium build quality in a compact 75% layout.
The 82-Key Layout Trims Bulk Without Cutting Corners
The R86 HE keeps dedicated arrow keys and essential function keys in an 82-key, 75% frame designed to save desk space for both gaming and daily typing. The top case is built from carbon fiber composite paired with anodized CNC aluminum alloy side accents, and the keycaps are also carbon fiber composite for a firm, consistent feel during fast inputs.
Rapid Trigger Accuracy Hits 0.005mm for Faster Counter-Strafing
For competitive FPS play, the keyboard offers 0.005mm Rapid Trigger Accuracy, allowing rapid key reset and actuation control for quicker transitions between movement and aiming. A custom esports chipset adds 256K scanning and an 8000Hz polling rate, pushing response times down to 0.08ms.
A Five-Layer Sound System Targets Cleaner Acoustics
Beyond raw speed, ATTACK SHARK built a five-layer sound-dampening structure into the R86 HE, combining PE foam, IXPE switch pads, PET acoustic film, switch socket foam, and bottom silicone padding to reduce resonance. A fiberglass positioning plate adds stability, while custom Huano Glass Jade magnetic switches are tuned for both fast response and a distinct acoustic profile.
Customization Extends to Switches, Lighting, and Software
The keyboard supports multiple high-performance magnetic switches with independent curve tuning, letting users set actuation points for different game styles. It also includes full-key RGB lighting and dual-side dynamic light strips, controllable through both web-based and PC software alongside key mapping and switch settings.
The R86 HE will be available through ATTACK SHARK's Amazon storefronts in the US, UK, Europe, Australia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.
