Milwaukee Bump Cap and Spring Assembly
Model Number: 14-32-3026
The Milwaukee 14-32-3026 is a genuine OEM Bump Cap and Spring Assembly for Milwaukee M18 string trimmers and string trimmer attachments. On a bump-feed trimmer head, the bump cap is the part at the bottom of the head that the operator taps on the ground to advance fresh cutting line, and the spring is what returns the cap and drives the line-feed mechanism so each bump pays out more line and the cap springs back ready for the next tap. This assembly supplies the bump cap and its spring together as a matched unit. It is the current replacement that consolidates and supersedes two older service parts: it replaces the obsolete Trimmer Head Housing, part number 42-30-0051, and the obsolete Trimmer Head Spring, part number 40-50-0296. If you are servicing a trimmer that originally used either of those obsolete parts, this 14-32-3026 assembly is what to order in their place. Because the bump cap and spring are worked on every line advance and the cap takes repeated ground contact, they are genuine wear items: a worn, cracked, or broken bump cap or a fatigued spring means the line no longer feeds reliably when bumped. Replacing them with this correct genuine Milwaukee OEM assembly restores proper bump-feed line advancement.
Because Milwaukee Tool specifies replacement parts by both catalog number and serial number, always verify your tool's serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before placing your order, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number. This bump cap and spring assembly is used on Milwaukee M18 string trimmers and QUIK-LOK string trimmer attachments, so confirm your tool's catalog and serial number against the parts diagram before ordering. The line spool, trimmer line, trimmer head ring, the trimmer head body, and the mounting hardware that work with the bump cap and spring are separate parts that vary by tool, so refer to your tool's parts diagram for the correct companion part numbers, and inspect the spool and head components when replacing the bump cap and spring since these parts work together in the trimmer head.
