About this part
The Clutch Hinge Mechanism (Apple part number 923-00046) is a genuine Apple part that fits the iMac (21.5-inch, 2017), iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2014), iMac (21.5-inch, Early 2013) and 5 other models. The hinge holds the display at the angle you set and carries the display cables through its opening.
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: iMac18,1, iMac14,4, iMac13,1, iMac18,2, iMac19,2, iMac16,2 and 2 other models.
Signs the hinge needs replacing
- A display that falls back or will not hold its angle
- Grinding, clicking, or a loose feel when opening the lid
- A cracked or broken hinge cover
- Display flicker that only appears at certain lid angles
