 The switch follows the general characteristics of the SKCC family, consisting of an upper and lower housing, [[:terminology:contact_module|contact module]], [[:terminology:stem|stem]], and spring.
-The stem, which is a cream color, is always lubricated and is likely made of a nylon blend((supposition based on materials in first generation SKCM/SKCL)). It is significantly taller than [[switch:alps_skcc_cream|Alps SKCC Cream]], to which the switch is otherwise identical.

 Alps SKCC Tall Cream, like all SKCC series switches, uses a contact module to register the keypress. This sits in the middle of the housing opposite the spring.
