Milwaukee 5 in. Type 27 Guard — UL
Model Number: 43-54-1221
The Milwaukee 43-54-1221 is a genuine OEM 5 in. Type 27 Guard for use in compatible Milwaukee 5 in. angle grinders, designated to UL safety standards. The Type 27 guard is the stamped metal safety enclosure shaped to cover the upper half of a Type 27 (depressed-center) grinding wheel — protecting the operator from sparks, fragments, and debris expelled during grinding while leaving the lower working surface of the wheel exposed. The UL designation confirms this guard meets Underwriters Laboratories safety requirements for the grinder it is designed for. A cracked, deformed, or missing guard requires immediate replacement — operating a grinder without a correctly installed guard is a serious safety hazard.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM UL-rated guard ensures the correct wheel clearance, mounting geometry, and deflection profile for the 5 in. grinder it serves. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct guard for your specific unit.
