Milwaukee Type 27 Grinding Guard
Model Number: 43-54-0155
The Milwaukee 43-54-0155 is a genuine OEM Type 27 Grinding Guard replacement for compatible Milwaukee angle grinders — the mandatory safety component that must be installed and properly adjusted at all times during angle grinder operation to shield the operator from wheel fragments, sparks, and debris ejected at operating speed. The grinding wheel guard is required by OSHA standards and Milwaukee's tool operating requirements — it must never be removed, modified, or operated in a damaged condition. A cracked, deformed, or missing wheel guard is immediate grounds for removing the tool from service until the guard is replaced with a correct OEM component that provides the structural integrity engineered to function as a protective barrier in the event of a wheel failure at the grinder's operating RPM.
The Type 27 designation specifies the depressed-center wheel profile this guard accommodates — Type 27 depressed-center wheels are the most common wheel type used in grinding and cutting applications, with a recessed hub that positions the abrasive surface below the wheel's mounting flange. This guard provides the correct geometry and clearances for safe operation with Type 27 depressed-center grinding and cutting wheels on compatible Milwaukee angle grinders. Milwaukee OEM guards are manufactured to the correct dimensional specifications for the specific grinder model's guard attachment points and wheel diameter — a guard with incorrect dimensions would not mount securely or provide adequate wheel coverage for the grinder's rated wheel size. Always verify your specific Milwaukee grinder model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering replacement guards.
