Product Description
Milwaukee 10 Gauge Die Kit
Model Number: 48-44-0102
The Milwaukee 48-44-0102 10 Gauge Die Kit is the current factory replacement cutting die for the Milwaukee 6880 Corded 10 Gauge Nibbler. This part replaces obsolete part number 48-44-0275, which was Milwaukee's previous 10 gauge die reference for the 6880. If you have ordered the 48-44-0275 in the past, the 48-44-0102 is the current Milwaukee-issued kit and is the correct part to order going forward. The cutting die is one of the two primary wear components on a nibbler, working in tandem with the punch to shear out small chips of metal as the tool advances along the cut line. Over time and through repeated cutting cycles, the die's cutting edges dull and the precision required to produce clean, burr-free cuts in sheet metal is lost. Replacing the worn die with this OEM kit restores the original cutting performance of the 6880 and brings cut quality back to factory specification.
The 6880 is Milwaukee's heavy-duty corded nibbler, rated to cut up to 10 gauge mild steel and 12 gauge stainless steel, making it a workhorse for HVAC fabrication, sheet metal work, automotive panel cutting, and corrugated metal projects. The die works with a companion punch to perform the cutting action, and Milwaukee specifies that both wear components be inspected together. The companion punch is sold separately and should be inspected for wear and replaced at the same time as the die if it shows any rounding, chipping, or loss of cutting edge — installing a new die against a worn punch will not restore cut quality and will accelerate wear on the new die. Milwaukee also specifies the use of allen wrench 49-96-0350 to remove and install the punch and die assembly, which is sold separately.
Genuine Milwaukee OEM cutting components are manufactured to the precise tolerances and heat-treat specifications of the original equipment, ensuring proper fit in the 6880's die holder and consistent cutting performance over the service life of the part. Aftermarket dies often differ in dimensions, hardness, or edge geometry, which can result in poor cuts, premature wear, accelerated punch wear, or damage to the die holder itself. For best results and longest tool life on the 6880, always replace cutting components with genuine Milwaukee OEM parts. Verify your tool model and serial number using Milwaukee's online parts lookup before ordering to confirm the 48-44-0102 is the correct die for your specific 6880 unit.
