Product Description
Milwaukee Left Shear Blade for 18 Gauge Shear 6850-20
Model Number: 48-44-0160
The Milwaukee 48-44-0160 is the Left replacement Shear Blade for the Milwaukee 18 gauge electric shear model 6850-20 — the lower left blade of the scissor-action shear head that pairs with the upper right blade to shear sheet metal cleanly at the cutting line. Note: This blade (48-44-0160) is for the 6850-20 model specifically — verify your specific shear model before ordering, as Milwaukee offers companion blade numbers for different shear model compatibility combinations. The left blade is the lower stationary component of the shear's cutting pair that provides the opposing cutting edge against which the upper right blade shears sheet metal as the shear advances along the cut line. When blade wear degrades the designed blade clearance, cut quality declines with increased burring, edge deformation, and more cutting force required throughout the cut stroke.
Milwaukee recommends replacing all shear blades simultaneously when servicing the cutting system — replacing only one blade leaves the others in a worn state that changes the clearance from what the new blade requires for optimal cutting geometry and clean sheet metal shear performance. The center blade (48-44-0151) and right blade (48-44-0171) complete the full three-blade shear head service for the 18 gauge shear models. Always consult milwaukeetool.com to confirm the correct blade combination for your specific 18 gauge shear model and serial number before ordering replacement blade components.
