About this deal

Pentalobe screwdriver is ideal for removing 5-point star screws on the mid 2009 MacBook Pro 15" battery. The flexible head with a quick-turn swivel cap allows for easy one-handed operation when tightening and loosening screws, making the process quicker and more efficient. While pentalobe screws may seem small and insignificant, they can actually be quite frustrating to deal with.

If your screws are really tight, you can wrap a piece of tape around the end of your makeshift screwdriver for added grip.The handle should be comfortable to hold and provide good grip so that you can apply enough force without losing control of the tool. If you need to tighten or loosen a small screw, you can try using a toothpick, pen knife, razor blade, or even a straightened paperclip.

And any knife with a sharp tip should work with for this so you could use like a stanley knife or a box cutter. Any partner we work with, parts, tools or consumables adhere to high standard in product quality, safety and sustainability, aiding and helping to progress the industry to keep devices running longer and assisting the repair industry. See if you can get a good grip on the head of the screw that way and then turn it counterclockwise to remove it.The precision magnetic screwdriver, tweezer, helper stick, cleaning cloth and storage bag make it more professional and precise.

We all know how frustrating it is when we can’t find our screwdriver and we need to unscrew something. The late-2012 version of the 13-inch MacBook Pro was the first 13-inch model to have pentalobe screws; several were used externally in a similar fashion to the 15-inch mid-2012 MacBook Pro. The iFixit P2 pentalobe screwdriver features a knurled grip and rubberized, ergonomic handle with swivel top. Dual head screwdrivers, which are suitable for most household electrical appliances, small and medium machinery maintenance, and more than 95% of the market on the phone, part of the iPhone at the bottom of screws, cameras, glasses, tablet PCs, and other digital products.If that doesn’t work, or if you can’t find anything that will fit into the head of the screw, you can try using a pair of needle-nose pliers.

Pentalobe screws were adopted by Apple starting in 2009, when they were first implemented in the 15-inch MacBook Pro. If those options don’t work, you may need to take your phone to a professional who can remove the screws for you.For the trackpad screw, a small flat blade did work from one outer lobe to the left or right of the opposite inner lobe (depending if loosening or tightening), but it wouldn't work on the smaller tri-lobed screws on the keyboard side of the trackpad as they were just too small for the blade.
