Milwaukee Type 1 Guard Assembly 5 in.
Model Number: 43-54-0925
The Milwaukee 43-54-0925 is a genuine OEM Type 1 Guard Assembly replacement for compatible Milwaukee 5 in. angle grinders — the wheel guard assembly that must be installed during all angle grinder operation with Type 1 straight grinding wheels and cutting wheels. The wheel guard is a mandatory OSHA and Milwaukee safety requirement — it provides a protective barrier between the operator and the rotating abrasive wheel, shielding the operator from wheel fragments, sparks, and debris ejected during grinding at operating RPM, and providing containment in the event of wheel breakage or fracture. Operating an angle grinder without the correct guard installed or with a damaged guard is an OSHA violation and creates a serious injury hazard — a cracked, deformed, or missing guard must be replaced immediately before the tool is returned to service.
The Type 1 designation specifies the wheel profile this guard is designed for — Type 1 wheels are straight cylindrical grinding wheels with a flat face that contact the work surface at 90° to the wheel axis, as opposed to the Type 27 depressed-center wheel profile that requires a different guard geometry. The guard assembly attaches to the 5 in. grinder's guard mounting collar for the specific Milwaukee grinder model it is designed for. Always verify your specific Milwaukee 5 in. grinder model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering replacement guard components, as guard specifications vary between grinder models and wheel size configurations.
