Milwaukee Cam Bushing
Model Number: 42-40-0105
The Milwaukee 42-40-0105 is a genuine OEM Cam Bushing for the 2729-20 M18 FUEL Deep Cut Band Saw and the corded 6232-20 Deep Cut Band Saw. A bushing is a precision-bored sleeve bearing, and this cam bushing supports the saw's cam shaft, the cam used to set and hold the saw's blade tracking so the blade runs true on its pulleys. The bushing gives the cam shaft a low-friction, correctly aligned bearing surface, so the tracking adjustment turns smoothly and holds its setting. Because it supports a moving component and the saw sees heavy, high-vibration use, the bushing wears over time, and a worn, oval, or scored cam bushing lets the cam shaft develop play, which can make blade tracking hard to set or cause it to drift. Replacing it with the genuine Milwaukee OEM bushing restores the correct bore fit and steady support for the cam, where an off-spec bushing may allow play or bind.
This bushing is identified as the Cam Bushing, at Figure 19 on the Milwaukee service parts list for the 2729-20 M18 FUEL Deep Cut Band Saw (serial F83A, bulletin 54-40-2710) and at Figure 78 on the corded 6232-20 Deep Cut Band Saw (bulletin 54-40-6240). It is a shared part that may appear on additional Milwaukee deep cut band saws, so verify it against your tool's diagram. It works directly with the cam shaft (45-08-0070), which is a separate item, in the saw's blade tracking and pulley area. Because Milwaukee uses distinct part numbers for bushings that look nearly identical but differ in bore, outside diameter, and length, order by this exact part number at the correct figure position rather than by appearance. 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.
