Milwaukee Side Handle
Model Number: 43-62-0845
The Milwaukee 43-62-0845 is a genuine OEM Side Handle replacement for compatible Milwaukee rotary hammers, demolition hammers, and heavy-duty drills — the auxiliary grip that threads into the tool's side handle boss to provide the two-handed operating configuration required for safe, controlled use of high-torque and high-impact power tools. OSHA standards and Milwaukee's tool operating requirements specify that rotary hammers and heavy drills with torque output beyond single-hand management must be operated with both the main handle and the side handle engaged for two-point control — the side handle provides the second contact point that prevents dangerous tool rotation if the bit binds in the workpiece during drilling, which can occur without warning and generate enough torque to injure the operator if only the main handle is gripping the tool. A broken, cracked, or missing side handle is grounds for immediate tool removal from service until the handle is replaced.
Milwaukee OEM side handles are manufactured to the correct thread specification for the tool's side handle boss, the correct clamping ring diameter for the tool body, and the handle material and grip construction quality required for the sustained gripping force and vibration demands of professional rotary hammer and demolition hammer operation. Side handle specifications vary between Milwaukee tool families and models — the mounting thread, body diameter, handle length, and grip material are specific to each tool model. Always verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering, as the correct side handle for your tool depends on both the model number and the production serial number range.
