Apple MacBook Pro Replacement Keyboard Keys

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.

    If you have to replace the entire mechanism, including the metal plate, it will not completely fix the issue but it’s better than nothing. Nevertheless, in order to keep the plate in place, I used 4 pieces of electronics double-sides tape and it seems to not wobble or detach. Without the tape, the key fits in nicely but it wobbles quite a lot and it doesn’t register key strokes at the sides.

    I ordered it from South Korea. It takes 2~3 weeks to arrive including a long customs process in the airport I guess. The original Cup was tightly attached than I expected so be careful when you pull it out first. The product itself is great and it expands my Mac book's life for more than 2 years!

    I ended up only needing a keycap. It matches well and I don't notice a difference anymore. It was, however, difficult to figure out how I would have replaced the full key with the "spring" part if I needed to do that.

    Keys and switches were an absolute perfect match. Fixed 3 keys that got debris caught under them breaking the tabs that held the caps in place. 10 minute repair saved me a whole lot of headache dealing with Apple warranty repair and losing use of the machine in the process. Once installed you literally cannot tell which keys are original and which are the replacements by look or feel.

    They did not have the part (key) I needed but I switched it for another one (command key - right vs left) and I am back in business. The key fit perfect and now my laptop works perfectly.
