The material on the bottom of your mouse dictates 50% of the glide feel. We break down the 'Tribology' of mouse skates.
The material on the bottom of your mouse dictates 50% of the glide feel. We break down the 'Tribology' of mouse skates.
| Material | Static Friction | Durability | Pad Wear |
|---|---|---|---|
PTFE (Teflon) | Balanced | Medium | Safe |
Glass (Superglide) | Speed (Very Low) | High | ⚠️ Destroys Pads |
Ceramic | Low | Very High | Medium |
Polytetrafluoroethylene is the gold standard. It offers a balanced glide with just enough friction for stopping power. <br/>Best For: Tactical shooters (Valorant/CS2) where control is key.
Tempered Glass (like Superglides) has near-zero static friction. It is incredibly fast but has zero stopping power. <br/>Best For: Tracking-heavy games (Apex/Overwatch) or humidity resistance.
⚠️ Warning: Glass is harder than cloth. Over time, glass skates will destroy your cloth mousepad, creating slow spots.
