iFixit EU145167-4 electronic device repair tool

The iFixit EU145167-4 magnetic project mat is an 8"x10" organizer designed for electronic device repair. Its magnetic surface holds screws and small parts in place during disassembly, while the dry-erase layer lets you annotate locations and steps directly on the mat. The kit includes a Staedtler Lumocolor correctable pen formulated not to smear from incidental contact but removable with the eraser tip or a dry cloth.

Advantages

This project mat organizes parts during repairs and reduces reassembly time by up to 40% by keeping screws and components in clear order. The magnetic surface secures fasteners as they are removed, and the dry-erase writing area prevents mistakes by allowing notes and visual guides. Included pen resists smearing from accidental brushes and cleans easily when needed.

Suitable for

• Cell phone repairs and small mobile devices
• Laptop disassembly where multiple screws must be tracked
• Tablet and handheld device maintenance
• Electronics hobbyist projects and component sorting

How to use

Place the mat on a flat work surface and position the device to be repaired nearby. As you remove screws and parts, arrange them on the magnetic zones to prevent rolling or loss. Use the included Staedtler pen to mark positions, order, or notes directly on the dry-erase surface. When finished, wipe annotations away with the pen’s eraser tip or a dry cloth and store the mat flat until the next use.

Recommendations

For complex repairs with many fasteners, map the screw locations immediately and keep components grouped by assembly step. Avoid prolonged exposure to liquids; wipe spills promptly to maintain the dry-erase surface and magnetic performance.
