Leha ho na le mekhoa e fapaneng ea ho rala li-keypads tsa rabara tsa silicone, boholo ba tsona li na le sebopeho se ts'oanang se nang le lisebelisoa tsa rabara tsa silicone ho potoloha switch ea elektroniki bohareng. Botlaaseng ba thepa ea rabara ea silicone ho na le lisebelisoa tse tsamaisang, tse kang carbon kapa khauta. Ka tlas'a thepa ena ea conductive ke pokotho ea moea kapa khase ea inert, e lateloa ke ho kopana le switch. Kahoo, ha o tobetsa konopo, lisebelisoa tsa rabara tsa silicone lia senyeha, kahoo li etsa hore thepa ea conductive e kopane ka ho toba le ho kopana le switch.

Li-keypad tsa silicone-rabara li boetse li sebelisa thepa ea compression ea thepa ena e bonolo le e kang seponche ho hlahisa maikutlo a tactile. Ha o tobetsa konopo ebe o lokolla monoana oa hau, senotlolo se tla "pop" hape. Phello ena e etsa hore ho be le boikutlo bo bobebe ba tactile, kahoo e bolella mosebedisi hore taelo ea hae e ngolisitsoe hantle.
