Replace a missing, damaged, or worn MacBook Pro key without replacing the entire keyboard. These OEM key kits are designed for compatible Late 2016–2018 MacBook Pro models using Apple’s second-generation butterfly keyboard mechanism.

Apple MacBook Pro replacement keyboard key
✓ Genuine OEM Parts Factory-original key components provide the proper appearance, attachment points, and fit.
✓ Complete Key Kit A standard key order includes the keycap, matching butterfly hinge clip, and rubber cup when needed.
✓ 13″ and 15″ Models Compatible with supported 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pro keyboards, with or without the Touch Bar.
✓ Repair One Key Replace only the damaged or missing key instead of purchasing and installing an entire keyboard.

Confirm the Butterfly Generation Before Ordering

Apple used different butterfly keyboard generations. These replacement keys use the second-generation butterfly mechanism found on compatible Late 2016–2018 MacBook Pro models. First-generation butterfly keycaps and hinge clips have different dimensions and attachment points and will not fit correctly.

Verify. Select. Repair.

1
Confirm Compatibility Verify that your MacBook Pro is a compatible Late 2016–2018 model using the second-generation butterfly keyboard.
2
Select Your Key Use the “Select Your Key” menu above to choose the exact letter, number, symbol, function key, arrow, or space bar needed.
3
Install the Key Kit Carefully position the rubber cup and hinge clip before pressing the replacement keycap into place.
IMPORTANT FITMENT CHECK

First Generation vs. Second Generation

Second-generation butterfly keycaps are taller and use hinge clips with longer attachment pegs. Compare these details before placing your order.

Second-generation butterfly keycap is taller Taller second-generation keycap
Second-generation butterfly hinge clip has longer pegs Longer second-generation hinge pegs

Ordering a Space Bar?

The space bar is offered in two versions. Choose carefully based on which parts are damaged:

MacBook Pro space bar with hinge clip and rubber cup Space Bar With Clip Choose this version when the space bar, hinge mechanism, or supporting components are damaged.
MacBook Pro space bar keycap without hinge clip Space Bar Without Clip Choose this lower-cost version only when the original hinge mechanism is undamaged and you need the replacement space-bar keycap.

Confirm Your Keyboard Layout

Compare your keyboard with the image below. Confirm the key shape, position, printed character, and surrounding layout before ordering.

International Keyboard Layouts

The standard layout shown is QWERTY. Some international keycaps use different printed characters or shapes. Although compatible hinge components may be interchangeable, contact us before ordering if your keycap shape or language layout differs from the image.

    This is the third key on my MacBook Pro that has broken, and the third that I have replaced via ReplacementLaptopKeys. The butterfly switch on this key wasn't broken, so I just needed the key itself. It snapped right into place and works perfectly.

  • Haven't received key yet, weeks later

    This is the second time I've ordered this key only to find that it's not in stock. The first time I opted to just receive the pieces below the key, but this time I told them I am waiting for the key itself. I guess their stock is not often up to date!

  • good if they arrive

    I've had to replace quite a few of my macbook keys (Apple really screwed up with this laptop keyboard). Several orders have gone off well, but the last order was canceled a long while after I placed it, because they didn't have the key. I thought they would follow up, but the followup was to ask me to give a review, so here I am. When the system works, the keys do their job.
