Milwaukee Sleeve and Ball Assembly
Model Number: 45-22-0010
The Milwaukee 45-22-0010 is a genuine OEM Sleeve and Ball Assembly for the 2450-20 and 2450-22 M12 impact drivers. This is the bit retention mechanism at the front of the impact driver, the part that holds a 1/4 in. hex bit in the anvil and lets the operator change bits by hand. It consists of the sliding sleeve, or collar, that the operator pulls back to insert or release a bit, and the steel ball that seats into the groove on the hex bit shank to lock the bit securely in place. Pulling the sleeve back retracts the ball so a bit can be inserted or removed, and releasing it lets the sleeve return and the ball lock the bit in, which is the quick-change, one-handed bit retention a hex impact driver depends on. Because the sleeve is worked on every bit change and the ball and sleeve carry the load of holding the bit during impact driving, they wear: a worn or damaged sleeve and ball assembly no longer retains bits securely, so bits fall out, will not lock in, or wobble in use. Replacing it with the correct genuine Milwaukee OEM assembly restores secure, reliable bit 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 sleeve-and-ball assemblies vary in internal diameter and configuration between impact driver models. This assembly is specified for the 2450-20 and 2450-22 M12 impact drivers, so confirm your tool's catalog and serial number against the parts diagram before ordering. Note that this is the sleeve and ball assembly; depending on your tool, a separate retaining clip or retaining ring that holds the mechanism together may not be included and could need to be ordered separately, so check your parts diagram for what your repair requires. The anvil, spring, retaining ring, and washers that work with the sleeve and ball are separate parts that vary by tool, so refer to your tool's parts diagram for the correct companion part numbers, and a screwdriver and pliers are typically needed to replace the assembly.
