Milwaukee Latch
Model Number: 44-20-2529
The Milwaukee 44-20-2529 is a genuine OEM Latch for the Milwaukee M12 FUEL Compact Band Saw 2529-20. The latch is the retention mechanism that secures the 2529-20's integrated blade cover in its closed position during cutting — the locking component that keeps the blade cover sealed against the tool body so the band saw can be used one-handed without the blade cover shifting or opening during operation. The integrated blade cover with its latch is a key feature of the 2529-20, enabling one-handed use by keeping the blade protected and the tool balanced during cuts in tight spaces such as Unistrut and pipe in confined ceiling and wall locations. The latch must engage positively when the cover is closed and release cleanly when the operator opens the cover for blade changes. A broken or non-latching latch that prevents the blade cover from staying secured requires replacement to restore correct one-handed operation capability on the 2529-20.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM latch ensures the correct engagement geometry and cover interface for the M12 FUEL Compact Band Saw 2529-20. Always verify your catalog number before ordering to confirm this is the correct latch for your specific unit.
