Milwaukee Kerf Plate — Single Piece
Model Number: 44-66-0142
The Milwaukee 44-66-0142 is a genuine OEM Single Piece Kerf Plate for use in compatible Milwaukee table saws. The kerf plate — also called a splitter, riving knife, or kerf insert — is the thin plate or blade that rides in the saw's kerf (the cut made by the blade) immediately behind the blade during ripping operations. The kerf plate prevents the two halves of the freshly cut workpiece from pinching back together behind the blade under the internal stresses released during the cut, which would cause binding, kickback, and potentially dangerous blade contact. A single-piece kerf plate that has been bent, cracked, or damaged so it no longer maintains a clear channel behind the blade requires replacement to restore proper kickback prevention and safe ripping operation.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM kerf plate ensures the correct thickness, profile, and mounting dimensions for the saw it serves. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct kerf plate for your specific unit.
