Milwaukee Detent Pin
Model Number: 44-60-1160
The Milwaukee 44-60-1160 is a genuine OEM Detent Pin replacement component for compatible Milwaukee power tools — a precision-machined spring-loaded pin that provides positive engagement, indexing, or retention at defined positions within the tool's mechanism. Detent pins are used throughout Milwaukee tool designs wherever a mechanism must snap into a defined position with audible and tactile confirmation and hold there against normal operating forces — common applications include accessory locking mechanisms, angle adjustment indexing on bevel and miter tools, mode selector retention, and any interface where positive stop engagement is required for safe and accurate tool operation. The detent pin's spring-loaded ball or pin tip engages a corresponding detent groove or hole in the mating component, providing the engagement force that holds the mechanism at the correct position while allowing deliberate position changes when the operator applies the release force needed to overcome the detent spring tension.
When a detent pin loses its spring tension from metal fatigue, the pin tip wears from repeated engagement-release cycling, or the pin body breaks from impact loading, the mechanism it controls loses its positive position engagement — settings may not hold under operating loads, accessories may not seat with the confirming click that confirms correct installation, or the tool may fail to maintain the user-selected operating mode during work. Replacing a failed detent pin with a genuine Milwaukee OEM part restores the correct engagement force and retention characteristics for safe, reliable mechanism operation. Always verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering, as detent pin specifications are unique to each tool model and mechanism location.
