Product Description

iMac Intel 21.5" (2012-2017) Adhesive Strips

Adhesive Strips for Every Repair

  • The individual adhesive strips are labeled to indicate their correct location as shown in the free replacement guides on iFixit's website.
  • The kit includes one iMac Opening Tool.
  • These foam adhesive strips secure the display to the case of the 21.5" Late 2012 through Mid 2017 iMac EMC 2544, 2545, 2638, 2742, 2805, 2833, 2889, and 3069.

The unique design of the 21.5" iMac requires the replacement of the adhesive strips whenever the display assembly is removed. The display has to be removed every time anything needs to be replaced or upgraded inside the machine.

Fortunately, these adhesive strips are actually a foam tape, easily cut with an iMac Opening Wheel. Because of continuing improvements, actual product may differ slightly from photo.

It has been about a month since I used this product to reattach my iMac's monitor after upgrading the RAM and HDD. No signs of it failing and was well within my ability to apply. Doubt I will ever need to purchase again, thus I will happily recommend with to all who ask!

Everything fit perfectly. If in doubt of your skills, watch their installation video. Just take your time. Hardest part of the repair was getting off the old adhesive. Just takes a little time & effort 90-99% alcohol and a microfiber cloth worked perfectly. Installation was a breeze. All iFixit parts & tools have been top notch.

The strips worked great to allow me to swap out a failing hard drive for a SSD drive. The strips arrived bent in a couple of spots, but that didn't affect the performance of the strips.

This adhesion kit works extremely well. So well in fact that you really only get one shot at this. Follow all of the instructions and ensure correct placement before you remove any of the protective back. Take extra care when reinstalling the screen, you only get one attempt. After a proper installation is completed you would never know that the computer had been opened. This product worked extremely well as advertised.

I can’t recommend this enough when it comes to repairing or upgrading any component inside of an iMac. This adhesive doesn’t look like is gonna hold, but after several months, after upgrading an iMac for a customer, I have been proven wrong. IFix it makes great products and I highly recommend any adhesives from iFix it!

The hard drive in the Mac died. And the display and surrounding glass is 'glued' in place with some form of double side sticky foam/tape I had to cut it and then replace it once the hard drive replacement was done. The small wheel cutter which was included made this job easy and safe. I did take a new razor blade and wrap most of it in tape leaving only a very small section exposed. This made it safer and not capable of going to deep to get it started then used the wheel cutter. If I had known how well the wheel cutter worked I would have just started with that.The replacement double sided tape resealed the screen to the metal case perfectly. Now more than a month later it is all still holding together perfectly.The strips were well cut and aligned very easily. This repair took little time or skill and put a very nice computer back into operation.If I ever have to open this machine again. I would buy this again without hesitation.
