Milwaukee Brake Bar
Model Number: 42-18-7001
The Milwaukee 42-18-7001 is a genuine OEM Brake Bar for the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 16 in. Chainsaw 2727-20. The brake bar is the actuating bar of the chainsaw's chain brake system — the bar that the operator's hand contacts during a kickback event, triggering the chain brake and stopping the chain within milliseconds to protect the operator from injury. The chain brake is a critical, mandatory safety system on all chainsaws; when the brake bar is pushed forward by the operator's hand or wrist during kickback, it engages the brake band around the clutch drum to stop chain movement immediately. The brake bar must operate freely, return to its set position, and actuate the brake reliably every time. A damaged, bent, or non-actuating brake bar is a serious safety hazard requiring immediate replacement to restore the chain brake safety system on the 2727-20.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM brake bar ensures the correct geometry and brake engagement interface for the M18 FUEL Chainsaw 2727-20. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct bar for your specific unit.
