Milwaukee Retaining Plate
Model Number: 44-66-0065
The Milwaukee 44-66-0065 is a genuine OEM Retaining Plate for the 6394-21 7-1/4 in. Worm Drive Circular Saw. A retaining plate is a flat, machined metal plate that captures and holds a component in its correct position within the tool, most often securing a bearing, seal, or bushing in its bore so it cannot back out or shift under load. Fastened in place with screws, the plate forms a fixed shoulder that keeps the part it retains properly seated and located, which is essential to keeping the shafts and gears it supports running in correct alignment. On a powerful worm drive saw, that secure retention matters, since the gearcase transmits high torque and the bearings and shafts must stay precisely located to run smoothly and last. Because the retaining plate carries the load of the component it holds and can be affected by heat, wear, and disassembly, a plate that is worn, bent, cracked, or missing can let the retained part shift, which leads to noise, play, misalignment, and accelerated wear. Replacing it with the correct genuine Milwaukee OEM plate restores secure retention and proper alignment.
Because Milwaukee Tool specifies replacement parts by both catalog number and serial number, always verify your tool's serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before placing your order, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number. This retaining plate is specified for the 6394-21 7-1/4 in. Worm Drive Circular Saw, so confirm your tool's catalog and serial number against the parts diagram before ordering. The mounting screws, and the bearing, seal, or component the plate retains, are separate parts that vary by tool, so refer to your tool's parts diagram for the correct companion part numbers and quantities, and inspect the retained bearing or seal when servicing the plate since these parts work together. Replacing the retaining plate typically involves disassembly of the gearcase, so follow the correct service procedure and re-grease the mechanism with the Milwaukee-specified gear grease on reassembly.
