About this part
The Screw, Cowling, 5 PK (Apple part number 923-14457) is a genuine Apple part that fits the MacBook Air 13-inch M5 2026 and MacBook Air 15-inch M5 2026. This cowling is the small metal cover that secures the Screw, , 5 PK connection. Its job is to keep that connector seated and shielded inside the case.

Before you order, match the model identifier on your Mac (Apple menu, About This Mac, System Report) to one of the identifiers listed for this part: Mac17,3 and Mac17,4.
Signs the cowling needs replacing
