Milwaukee Spindle Lock Spring
Model Number: 40-50-8046
The Milwaukee 40-50-8046 is a genuine OEM Spindle Lock Spring for use in compatible Milwaukee tools. The spindle lock spring is the spring that provides the return or engagement force in the tool's spindle lock mechanism — the spring that either holds the spindle lock pin in the disengaged position during normal operation and releases it for engagement when the operator activates the spindle lock button, or that returns the spindle lock to its unlocked position after the operator releases it. The spindle lock must operate reliably for one-wrench bit changes, returning to the disengaged position cleanly after each use so the spindle rotates freely during tool operation. A fatigued, broken, or set spindle lock spring that prevents correct spindle lock engagement or return requires replacement to restore reliable spindle lock function.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM spindle lock spring ensures the correct spring rate and dimensions for the spindle lock mechanism it serves. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct spring for your specific unit.
