No, I know those are available but those are different than what's inside the proper keyboards (as opposed to rubber keypads). Rather than round pads, there are "strips" spanning across the lower end of the plastic "rod" that's pushed down on keystrokes. I'd be interested in buying either the conductive "strips" or the whole element (rod with strip). They might possibly be still used in some modern keyboards.
