Milwaukee Shoulder Screw
Model Number: 06-81-0075
The Milwaukee 06-81-0075 Shoulder Screw is a genuine OEM replacement fastener used across a wide range of Milwaukee bandsaw platforms, including the 2529-20 M12 FUEL Band Saw, the M18 FUEL Deep Cut Bandsaws (2729-20, 2729-21, 2729-22, 2729S-20), the M18 FUEL Compact Bandsaws (2829-20, 2829S-20), and the corded Deep Cut Bandsaws (6232-20, 6232-21, 6238-20, 6238-21). Identified as Figure 93 on Milwaukee service bulletin 54-40-6240 (6232-20) and referenced across the M18 FUEL bandsaw bulletins, the shoulder screw is part of the blade guide and tension assembly at the front of the bandsaw, where it works with the tension bushings (Milwaukee 42-40-0115), wear plate (44-66-6232 on corded platforms), support plate, and blade tension springs to maintain correct blade tracking and tension across the front pulley path. Milwaukee specifies three of these shoulder screws per bandsaw, so if you are replacing one due to wear, breakage, or thread damage, it is good practice to inspect all three positions and replace any showing similar wear.
A shoulder screw is a precision-machined fastener with an unthreaded cylindrical shank (the shoulder) between the head and the threaded end. Unlike a standard screw, the shoulder serves as a bearing surface, pivot point, or precision-fit location feature for adjacent components, providing both fastening and mechanical alignment in a single part. On a bandsaw blade guide assembly, the shoulder allows the tension bushings and adjacent components to pivot or float on the screw shank while the threaded end provides the secure clamping force. Substituting a generic screw at this location will not preserve the shoulder geometry the blade guide assembly was designed around, which can result in misalignment, premature wear of the bushings and wear plate, and inconsistent blade tracking. Because Milwaukee Tool specifies replacement parts by both catalog number and serial number, always verify your tool's serial number against the official Milwaukee bandsaw service parts diagram before ordering, since Milwaukee occasionally implements running production changes that affect part compatibility within the same catalog number. Verify by serial number using Milwaukee's online parts lookup before ordering to confirm correct fitment.
