Milwaukee Side Handle
Model Number: 43-62-0885
The Milwaukee 43-62-0885 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 mandate that rotary hammers and heavy drills 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, a sudden torque event that can cause serious injury if only the main handle is gripping the tool. A broken, cracked, or missing side handle is immediate grounds for removing the tool from service until it is replaced with a correct OEM component.
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 needed for sustained gripping force and vibration management during 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 and production series. Always verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering to confirm the correct side handle part number for your tool.
