Genuine OEM keyboard bracket for Alienware m15 R2
This genuine Dell bracket provides the internal metal frame that secures the keyboard to the palm-rest assembly on the Alienware m15 R2. It is manufactured to OEM specifications using a stamped metal alloy for structural rigidity. The part carries the identifier 1YRDC and board code AM2KH000R00. It is intended for technicians or owners repairing a damaged or missing keyboard support structure.
Installation uses pre-drilled OEM screw mounts
The bracket aligns with the factory mounting points inside the chassis, so no drilling or modification is required during fitting. Correct alignment with the palm-rest assembly is essential to prevent keyboard flex after reassembly. A common issue occurs when the original bracket is bent, causing the replacement to sit unevenly if the surrounding plastic posts are also damaged. Careful inspection of the mounting bosses before installation avoids repeat failure.
Maintains keyboard stability during extended
Under sustained use the metal alloy frame resists deformation, keeping the keyboard assembly flush with the chassis over long periods. The rigid construction prevents the gradual flex that can develop when a damaged bracket is left in place. Consistent support ensures key travel remains uniform during heavy workloads. The component is designed to match the thermal and mechanical environment of the laptop interior.
