Milwaukee Slide Pole - Back
Model Number: 31-84-0090
The Milwaukee 31-84-0090 is a genuine OEM Slide Pole - Back for Milwaukee HP angle grinders with a slide switch, including the 6117 (5 in. / 125mm) and 6161 (6 in.) families. The slide pole is one of the two guide poles, a front and a back, that the grinder's slide switch rides on: together they form the rails that guide the slide switch smoothly through its travel as the operator slides it to turn the grinder on, lock it on, and switch it off. Because the slide switch is actuated constantly and the poles take the sliding load, a worn, bent, or broken slide pole makes the switch stick, bind, or travel roughly, which is both an inconvenience and a control concern on a grinder. Replacing it with the genuine Milwaukee OEM slide pole restores smooth, reliable slide-switch action, where an off-spec pole may not fit the switch track or let it move freely.
This slide pole is identified as the Slide Pole - Back, Figure 34, on the Milwaukee service parts list for the 5 in. HP Angle Grinder with Slide Switch and Speed Dial, bulletin 54-38-2142, and it is used across the slide-switch HP grinder family (6117-33, 6117-33D, 6117-59, 6117-59A, and 6161-33). It is the back pole of a pair and works with the front slide pole (31-84-0095) and the slide switch, which are separate items; replace both poles together if the switch travel is rough. Note that this is not the same slide pole as the 31-84-0080 back pole used on other Milwaukee grinders, so order by the exact part number and verify against your tool's diagram. Because Milwaukee specifies service parts by serial number as well as catalog number, verify your catalog and serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before ordering, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number.
