Smartphone Glass Back Cover Removal Jig – Introduction
This back cover removal jig is specifically designed for repairing and replacing glass back covers on smartphones. It is available in two versions: gold anodized and silver natural finish. Both versions are identical in internal structure, overall dimensions, materials, and clamping functionality; the only difference is the color of the aluminum alloy surface treatment. Compatible with all Apple and Android smartphones on the market, it is an essential clamping tool for repair shops when disassembling cracked back covers.
The main body of the clamp is machined from a single piece of thickened aluminum alloy sheet. The lower clamping plate is 12 mm thick, with an overall width of 100 mm. The maximum adjustable height between the upper and lower clamping plates is 83 mm. An 18 mm wide, curved camera clearance groove is reserved in the center of the clamping plates, allowing the clamp to completely avoid the protruding rear camera module during phone disassembly and reassembly, ensuring the lens is not squeezed or scratched during the clamping process. The inner surfaces of the clamping plates are lined with integrated black, highly elastic silicone cushioning pads. These increase friction to prevent slippage when clamping the device, while also cushioning the clamping pressure. This effectively protects the paint finish on the phone’s midframe and the glass back cover, preventing repair-related issues such as indentations, paint chipping, or glass cracking.
The entire clamping mechanism utilizes stainless steel lead screws paired with butterfly nuts. A total of four adjustment screws—two on the top and two on the bottom—allow for independent fine-tuning of the left-right clamping gap and overall clamping force. No additional tools such as wrenches or screwdrivers are required; force adjustments can be made by hand, making the process accessible even for novice repair technicians. The dual-layer counter-pressure clamping design evenly distributes the force applied to the rear glass cover. When disassembling a heated, shattered rear cover, the stress is distributed uniformly, significantly reducing the risk of glass shattering or debris scratching internal components.
The device features a compact and lightweight design. It can be mounted on a repair workbench for long-term use or stored in a repair toolkit, making it suitable for both fixed-location repairs at retail stores and mobile on-site service. The thickened aluminum alloy plates provide ample rigidity, ensuring no bending or deformation even after long-term, high-frequency, repeated clamping. The stainless steel lead screw is rust-resistant and wear-resistant, making it less prone to slippage or jamming during prolonged use and ensuring high durability. A single clamp can handle a large volume of smartphone back cover disassembly tasks over the long term. Whether for flat, curved, or foldable smartphone back covers, it provides stable clamping and fixation, with a single set of tools covering the back cover repair needs for the vast majority of models.
