Milwaukee Band Saw Work Piece Bumper
Model Number: 42-38-0135
The Milwaukee 42-38-0135 is a genuine OEM Work Piece Bumper replacement for compatible Milwaukee band saws — the elastomeric or polymer bumper that provides the cushioned contact interface between the band saw's body or mechanism and the workpiece during cutting operations. The work piece bumper protects the workpiece surface from direct metal-to-metal contact with the band saw during cutting, absorbs the vibration and impact forces that occur as the saw is pressed against and moved along the material, and provides the controlled contact geometry that guides consistent, stable positioning of the saw against the workpiece throughout the cut. When the bumper compresses permanently from fatigue, tears from physical damage, or hardens and loses its elastomeric properties from age and heat cycling, it can no longer protect the workpiece or maintain the stable contact geometry the saw relies on for controlled, accurate cutting.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM work piece bumper ensures the correct material durometer, dimensions, and geometry for proper function in the specific Milwaukee band saw application — the bumper's hardness and profile are engineered to the saw's operating forces and workpiece contact requirements. A replacement bumper with incorrect durometer would either fail to protect the workpiece adequately or alter the saw's contact feel and cutting behavior. Always verify your specific Milwaukee band saw model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering, as bumper specifications vary between Milwaukee band saw models and production revisions.
