Milwaukee Outer Blade Flange
Model Number: 43-34-0285
The Milwaukee 43-34-0285 is a genuine OEM Outer Blade Flange for the 6477-20 7-1/4 in. Worm Drive Circular Saw. The outer blade flange is the metal flange that sits on the outward-facing side of the saw blade on the spindle. When the blade bolt is tightened, the outer flange clamps against the face of the blade and works together with the inner blade flange to secure the blade firmly and concentrically on the spindle during cutting. That secure, square clamping is what keeps the blade running true, which on a powerful worm drive saw is essential to clean, straight, accurate cuts and to safe operation under load. Because the flange is a machined part that carries the clamping load of the blade, a flange that is cracked, bent, worn, or corroded can no longer clamp the blade correctly, and a blade that is not held securely can shift, wobble, or run out during cutting, which is a serious safety hazard as well as a cause of poor cut quality. Replacing a damaged outer flange with the correct genuine Milwaukee OEM part restores proper blade clamping and safe, accurate operation.
Because Milwaukee Tool specifies replacement parts by both catalog number and serial number, always verify your tool's serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before placing your order, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number. This outer blade flange is specified for the 6477-20 7-1/4 in. Worm Drive Circular Saw, so confirm your tool's catalog and serial number against the parts diagram before ordering. A wrench is required to remove the blade bolt when replacing the flange, and note that on these worm drive saws the blade screw is left-hand threaded, so it loosens clockwise. The inner blade flange, ordered separately as 43-34-0275, the blade bolt, and the saw blade are companion parts sold separately, so when replacing the outer flange, inspect the inner flange and blade bolt at the same time and replace them if worn or damaged, since these parts work together to retain the blade.
