Alps SKBM Grey, simplified grey Alps, Fukka grey Alps, or Fuhua grey Alps, is a clicky switch in the Alps SKBL/SKBM series.

SKBM Grey switches can be found both branded (earlier production runs) and unbranded (later productions). The relationship of SKBM Grey to SKBM White is not known, but tests apparently suggest that both are approximately the same weight.
