About the Broken Key black filled icon
A classic key with a round bow and open center hole runs diagonally across the frame, its toothed blade fractured into two separated pieces with a jagged break between them. It signals lost access, an invalid password, an expired license or a compromised account. Use it in login error states, security dashboards, account recovery flows, locksmith sites and 404 pages.
The circular bow balances the angular teeth, and the visible gap between the two halves is what carries the meaning, so keep it from closing up. Pair it with padlock, shield and access denied icons. Use 32 px or larger so the fracture stays obvious.
This is the solid black filled version of the broken key icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
