About the Broken Key black outline 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 black outline version of the broken key icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
