Milwaukee Hex Flange Screw
Model Number: 45-04-1020
The Milwaukee 45-04-1020 is a genuine OEM Hex Flange Screw for compatible Milwaukee power tools — a precision-specification fastener with a hex drive head and integrated flange washer that secures a specific component within the tool's assembly at the correct torque, with the flange's larger contact face distributing clamping load evenly across the fastener's bearing surface to prevent fastener loosening from tool vibration. Hex flange screws are used in Milwaukee tool designs wherever a fastener must remain securely torqued through sustained vibration and dynamic loading — the hex head allows controlled torque application during assembly and service, and the integrated flange washer provides the load distribution that prevents the fastener from backing out under the cyclic loading of power tool operation. When this screw is missing, stripped, or damaged, the component it secures becomes loose with the resulting degradation in tool performance, accuracy, or safety that the loose component causes.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM hex flange screw ensures the correct thread specification, head dimensions, flange diameter, and material for the specific fastener location and torque requirement — hardware store substitutes with incorrect thread pitch, incorrect flange diameter, or incorrect material hardness will either not achieve the required clamping force or will fail prematurely under the tool's operating conditions. Always verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering service hardware, as fastener specifications are unique to each tool model and component mounting location.
