Recommended tools for some keys
Optional but handy: the spudger lifts the key without scratching or bending the mechanism, and the thin blade of the flat screwdriver unhooks the plastic hinge and helps clip it back in.

On these keyboards, this genuine MX Keys key takes the place of the official one: same scissor mechanism and mounting, with a legend and finish that may differ slightly.
About the - / _ replacement key
A missing punctuation key shows up in every sentence: this - / _ key for the MX Keys, hinge included, takes its place back in a minute. No copy here: the - / _ key comes, pre-owned, from a dismantled keyboard, and arrives without the rubber dome, which stays on yours.
Compatibility
Across the letter and number block, the MX Keys, MX Keys S, MX Keys Mini and MX Keys for Mac share the same one-unit cap, so this - / _ keycap fits a full-size model and a Mini alike. Choose it by its legend — here, the QWERTY (US) layout.
The - / _ key: position, size and wear
On the full-size MX Keys, the - / _ key sits on the number row, 2nd key to the left of Backspace. It carries “- / _”, characters specific to the QWERTY (US) layout: the legend is what matters here, since a cap from another layout would clip into the same spot with different symbols. With no metal wire under a one-unit cap, the - / _ key rests entirely on its scissor hinge. A press at an angle, a fingernail slipped underneath or a vigorous clean is enough to tear one of its clips.
How to install it
Allow under a minute to refit the - / _ key, bare-handed or with a plastic spudger: free the old hinge if it is broken, clip the new one in the same orientation, then press straight down on the cap until you feel a soft click.
- / _ key — questions
- Will the - / _ key also fit an MX Keys Mini?
- Yes, whichever version you have: this - / _ keycap is a one-unit cap shared by the MX Keys, MX Keys S, MX Keys Mini and MX Keys for Mac. Just check that your keyboard uses the QWERTY (US) layout, so the printed characters match.
- Is the hinge included with the - / _ key?
- Yes, the X-shaped hinge comes with the - / _ key — it is often the part that broke. Only the rubber dome is not supplied: it stays in place on the keyboard under the - / _ key, and domes are sold in packs among our spare parts.
- I changed the cap on the - / _ key, but it still types nothing — what now?
- If the - / _ key was unresponsive rather than physically broken, the fault usually lies in its scissor hinge, included here, or in the rubber dome underneath, sold separately. Replace the hinge first, then the dome if the - / _ key still feels mushy.
Check your keyboard's brand
You are looking at a Logitech key. Keycap and hinge differ between brands: this key will not fit an Apple keyboard.
