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.
Where is the 7 key on the numeric keypad and what does it do?
On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the 7 key on the numeric keypad sits to the left of the 8, below Num Lock. With Num Lock on, it types 7; with Num Lock off, it acts as Home, the function printed under the digit. If the keypad moves the cursor instead of typing, press Num Lock.
About the 7 (Num) replacement key
The 7 (Num) key from the Logitech MX Keys numeric keypad, supplied with its hinge, to get a complete keypad back when a key has broken or vanished. The 7 (Num) key is a genuine Logitech part, pre-owned, taken from a dismantled keyboard; the rubber dome is not supplied, as the one on your keyboard stays in place.
Compatibility
This 7 (Num) keycap fits the full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac), the only ones with a numeric keypad: the MX Keys Mini has none, so there is no place for it there. The legend is that of the QWERTY (US) layout.
The 7 (Num) key: position, size and wear
The numeric keypad exists only on the full-size MX Keys, and its keys are hammered in quick one-handed runs during data entry. With no metal wire under a one-unit cap, the 7 (Num) 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
Fitting takes no tools. If the old hinge under the 7 (Num) key is split, remove its fragments; seat the one supplied, hold the new cap flat above it and press the middle — a click tells you it is held. To test it, turn Num Lock on first; otherwise the keypad moves the cursor instead of typing.
7 (Num) key — questions
- Where is the 7 key on the numeric keypad and what does it do?
- On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the 7 key on the numeric keypad sits to the left of the 8, below Num Lock. With Num Lock on, it types 7; with Num Lock off, it acts as Home, the function printed under the digit. If the keypad moves the cursor instead of typing, press Num Lock.
- Will the 7 (Num) key fit my MX Keys?
- Yes, if it is a full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac) in the QWERTY (US) layout. The MX Keys Mini has no numeric keypad.
- Is the hinge included with the 7 (Num) key?
- Yes: cap and hinge arrive together. The dome, the small rubber cup that makes the 7 (Num) key spring back, is not part of the order; the one on your keyboard is reused, and a spare dome can be ordered on its own.
- My 7 (Num) key moves the cursor instead of typing — do I need a new one?
- Not necessarily: if the whole keypad does the same, Num Lock is off. Press it once; the MX Keys has no indicator light, but Logi Options+ can show its status on screen. If only this key fails, its hinge or dome is at fault.
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.
