Milwaukee Lock Pin Cap
Model Number: 31-12-0018
The Milwaukee 31-12-0018 is a genuine OEM Lock Pin Cap for the 2678-20 M18 FORCE LOGIC 6T Crimper. On this crimper, the tool head accepts interchangeable jaws and dies, and a lock pin mechanism is what secures the jaw in the head so it stays locked in position during the high-force crimping cycle. The lock pin cap is the component that caps and retains that lock pin assembly, holding the lock pin and its spring in place and providing the surface the operator interacts with to work the lock. Together with the lock pin and the lock pin spring, the cap makes up the mechanism that locks the jaw in and releases it for a jaw change. Because the lock pin cap is handled every time a jaw is installed or removed and is part of a mechanism that holds a jaw against the substantial forces a 6-ton crimper generates, it is a wear and service item: a cracked, worn, or damaged cap can let the lock mechanism function improperly, which affects secure jaw retention. Replacing it with the correct genuine Milwaukee OEM lock pin cap restores proper, reliable operation of the jaw lock.
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 lock pin cap is specified for the 2678-20 M18 FORCE LOGIC 6T Crimper, so confirm your tool's catalog and serial number against the parts diagram before ordering. The lock pin and lock pin spring that work with the cap, along with the jaw or die and the tool head components, are separate parts that vary by tool, so refer to your tool's parts diagram for the correct companion part numbers, and inspect the lock pin and spring when replacing the cap since these parts work together in the lock mechanism. Because this is a FORCE LOGIC hydraulic utility tool, follow the correct service procedure and note that Milwaukee restricts certain repairs to authorized service personnel and advises against disassembly that could void the warranty.
