Vibroplex Straight Keys
Vibroplex straight keys are a first for Vibroplex in its 100+ year history. Their design is distinctly Vibroplex. Their heavy, solid-steel base anchors the straight keys to the operating position, while their lever arm pivots in the famous chromed mainframe. An adjustable stainless steel spring allows for complete control of the tension. And, of course, the straight keys have the famous brass Vibroplex logo plate with a unique serial number pinned to the top of the base with stainless steel pins. They are available in standard, deluxe, and 24K gold finishes. Vibroplex straight keys have unique mechanical action, unlike any other straight keys that have ever been manufactured. Their smooth action and heavy steel base allow the operator to send perfect code.

Vibroplex Vibrokeyers
Vibroplex Vibrokeyers are designed for those who prefer non-iambic paddles. The single-lever paddles initiate the automatic dots and dashes with the same motion used to operate the "Bug". Code speed with the Vibrokeyers depends upon the particular electronic keyers with which they are operated. You get the same crisp operation at 5 wpm as you do at 50+ wpm. The Vibrokeyers use the same main frame and decorative chrome finished parts as the Original "Bug", for the same smooth and easy-operating Vibroplex feel. The Vibrokeyers are available in standard, deluxe, and 24K gold models. The deluxe and 24K gold models feature jeweled movements. For those who want to combine traditional skill with modern electronics Vibroplex Vibrokeyers are the answer. A cord is not included.

Vibroplex VIBROCUBE Iambic Keyer Paddles
Vibroplex VIBROCUBE Iambic Keyer Paddles are the latest offering from Scott Robbins, W4PA, the owner of Vibroplex. Again and again he heard from hams how we don't like our small, lightweight CW paddles sliding around on the operating table when in use. When he took over Vibroplex in 2009, he vowed to create a large paddle that would stay in place on the desk and accommodate his large hand comfortably. The result of many hours of conversations with the ham community is VIBROCUBE. VIBROCUBE Keyer Paddles register just under 6 pounds on the scale! Their bases are USA-forged cold rolled steel and their upper components are zinc, steel and brass. Their finger pieces are hard red acrylic. Instead of magnetic tensioning, they use the tried and true spring loaded tensioning method, which provides a greater range of tension settings than magnets allow. Hefty, but not oversized, their bases measure 3-1/2 in. square and 1-1/2 in. high, and with their rubber feet installed VIBROCUBE keyers have an overall height of 4-1/4 in. Their oversize acrylic finger pieces are 2-1/8 in. at their tallest point. Large paddles accommodate a large hand easily and take minimal hand movement to use. These are not fragile, delicate devices. VIBROCUBE keyer paddles are TOUGH. All parts except the finger pieces and the two decorative top jewels are metal. The Standard bases, mainframes, and lever bars are electrostatic powdercoated in a wrinkle black finish. It's difficult to chip or scratch this paint. Deluxe VIBROCUBE keyer paddles are all chrome. Adjustment components are chromed brass and the contact points are coin-grade silver. Four non-skid rubber feet are affixed to the bottom for extra non-movement stability. VIBROCUBE keyer paddles are made and all assembly is done in our facility in Knoxville, TN. There are three affordable VIBROCUBE versions available. The Standard version uses our standard pivoting trunion pins and screws and is available in black finish. The Standard Upgraded version is built exactly like the Standard, except the pivoting trunion pins are rounded off and the upper and lower trunion screws have an industrial jewel installed. The Deluxe version is a work of art in all-chrome, also with the jeweled movements installed. Order one of the new Vibroplex VIBROCUBE Iambic Keyer Paddles for your shack today, from DX Engineering.
