Milwaukee K40 x 5/8 in. T20 Plastite Pan Head Screw
Model Number: 06-82-9220
The Milwaukee 06-82-9220 is a genuine OEM K40 x 5/8 in. Slotted T-20 Torx Plastite (PT) Pan Head Screw for use in compatible Milwaukee tools. The K40 designation identifies Milwaukee's proprietary thread-forming screw profile used throughout their tool housing assemblies — similar to the K50 designation used in larger washer head applications. "PT" stands for Plastite, a thread-forming screw specifically engineered to displace and form its own mating threads as it is driven into a pre-drilled or molded pilot hole in plastic, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped thread in the receiving plastic boss. The thread-forming process creates a precise, interference-fit thread that provides strong resistance to loosening under vibration and dynamic operating loads. This screw is most commonly used to secure right housing sections to motor assemblies in compatible Milwaukee tools. The T-20 Torx drive provides superior torque transfer and reduced cam-out, while the secondary slotted recess provides a backup drive option when a Torx driver is unavailable. The pan head profile provides a low-profile, slightly rounded head with a flat bearing surface above the fastened surface. A stripped, broken, or missing screw requires replacement to restore proper housing assembly integrity and safe tool operation.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM K40 Plastite screw ensures the correct proprietary thread-forming profile, 5/8 in. length, T-20 Torx drive, and pan head geometry for the plastic housing interface it serves. Non-OEM screws may not match the original K40 thread profile, leading to improper thread formation in the plastic boss or insufficient clamping force at the housing joint. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct screw for your specific unit.
