Milwaukee Plastic Die Lock Ring
Model Number: 44-90-0038
The Milwaukee 44-90-0038 is a genuine OEM Plastic Die Lock Ring, the ring that locks and retains a die in its correct position within the tool's die holder or head. On tools that use interchangeable dies, such as threading, crimping, swaging, or pressing tools, the die must be held securely in place so it stays aligned and cannot back out or shift under the forces of the operation. This die lock ring is what captures and retains the die, forming the positive lock that keeps it seated. The molded plastic construction is designed to fit the die and holder precisely and to hold the die reliably while allowing the die to be changed when needed. Because the ring is worked every time a die is installed or removed and takes the stress of holding the die during use, it is a wear component: when it is worn, cracked, or broken, the die may not lock securely, which can allow it to shift or come loose, affecting the quality and safety of the operation. Replacing it with the correct genuine Milwaukee OEM ring restores secure, proper die retention.
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, and die lock rings are specific to the tool and die system they serve. Do not order by appearance, since rings that look similar can differ in critical dimensions, and the diagram is what confirms the correct part for your tool. The dies themselves and the surrounding die holder components 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 die holder and dies when replacing the lock ring since these parts work together.
