Device Cleaning Kit
Regularly cleaning your devices is one of the best methods of preventive maintenance – and it helps significantly extend their lifespan. But modern electronics don't make it easy for us: mini connectors, tiny ports, and tight spaces attract dust and lint like a magnet – and are often hard to reach. That's why we've put together a kit designed specifically for this purpose: to keep hard-to-reach areas of your electronics clean. With thoughtful tools that you can use repeatedly – as long as you take good care of them.
- Spatula – an iFixit standard tool with many uses, ideal for scraping and prying.
- Half Spatula – Remove lint with the hook or clean tight spots with the blade.
- Angled Tweezers – Useful for removing lint or dirt from connectors, but be careful not to damage the delicate pins inside!
- iFixit Contact Conditioner and Cleaner – Cleans tarnished or corroded electronic contacts, improves conductivity, and protects against future corrosion.
- Cylindrical Brush – With its plastic bristles and compressibility, this brush is perfect for scrubbing headphone jacks, USB ports, SD card readers, and more.
