32 hardened PTFE donut skates, 0.85mm thick × 9.5mm diameter, with a hard, finely frosted surface — built for better control and emergency stop, with more stable movement and less noise than dot skates on cloth and glass pads.
32 Donuts / PackHardened PTFEStable & Quiet
DIY Hardened PTFE Donuts — Bigger Footprint, More Stable Glide
The Obsidian Donut Mouse Skates are universal 9.5mm hardened PTFE donuts — a wider contact footprint than the standard 6.5mm dots, for more stable mouse movement and less noise on the slide. The hard, finely frosted surface increases friction at the contact point; the hardened PTFE adds braking power for emergency stops and tap-shot precision.
Apply as many or as few as you want. Fewer donuts = faster glide. More donuts = more control and slower stop. Tune your skates the way you tune your sensitivity.
Key Features of the Obsidian Donut Skates
01
9.5mm Donut Footprint
Wider than the standard 6.5mm dots — the larger contact ring distributes load more evenly for more stable mouse movement and quieter slide.
02
Hardened PTFE Material
Harder than standard PTFE — the donuts resist deformation and deliver more braking power for emergency stops and controlled tap-shot aim.
03
Finely Frosted Surface
Hard, finely frosted contact surface — increases friction against cloth and glass pads for cleaner stops and no overshoot.
04
More Stable, Less Noise
The wider donut footprint plus hardened material reduces micro-wobble and dampens the acoustic signature compared to dot skates.

How to Install
Remove your mouse's original feet, clean the contact area with the included adhesive remover wipe, peel each donut, and stick it on. Refer to the install guide and layout references below.
Layout References
Tip: fewer donuts = faster glide, more donuts = more controlled stop. Start with the original foot positions, then add or remove donuts until the balance feels right.
FAQ
What's a donut skate, and how is it different from a dot skate?
A donut skate is a ring-shaped PTFE pad with a wider footprint than a circular dot — in this case 9.5mm vs the standard 6.5mm dots. The wider contact ring distributes mouse weight more evenly, which translates to more stable movement and a quieter slide compared to small dots. Trade-off: donuts cover more surface area per piece, so you typically use fewer of them.
How many donuts should I use per mouse?
Start with the same positions as your mouse's original feet — usually 2 to 4 contact points. Add more donuts to slow the glide and increase control, or use fewer to speed up. Most builders find their preferred layout within a few attempts.
Will these work on my mouse pad?
Yes for cloth and glass mouse pads. Not recommended for coated or plastic mouse pads — the hardened, frosted surface is tuned for the texture of cloth and glass.
Are these the best skates for stable, quiet control?
For players who want maximum stability and quieter operation on top of the Obsidian control character, the donut version is one of the better DIY options — wider contact footprint reduces micro-wobble and dampens the slide noise compared to dot skates of the same hardened PTFE material.
