Milwaukee 1/4 in. Collet
Model Number: 48-66-2004
The Milwaukee 48-66-2004 is a genuine OEM 1/4 in. Collet for the 2723-20 M18 FUEL Router. The collet is the slotted steel sleeve that grips the shank of a 1/4 in. router bit: it seats in the router's spindle, and as the collet nut is tightened, the collet's slots close evenly around the bit shank to hold it concentric and tight at high speed. A collet that grips the bit true and holds it without slipping is what keeps the cut clean and the bit safely retained, so it is a precision part. Because it is clamped on every bit change and takes the load and heat of routing, a collet can wear, lose its grip, or go out of round over time, at which point a bit can slip, chatter, or spin out. Replacing it with the genuine Milwaukee OEM collet restores a true, secure grip on 1/4 in. bit shanks, where an off-spec collet may not seat in the spindle or hold the bit concentric.
This collet is the current service replacement for the 1/4 in. collet on the 2723-20 M18 FUEL Router. This part replaces obsolete part number 43-44-0043, the earlier 1/4 in. collet, so if your parts diagram or an older listing still shows 43-44-0043, order 48-66-2004 in its place. It works with the router's collet nut, which tightens the collet onto the bit, and is a separate item. Because Milwaukee specifies service parts by serial number as well as catalog number, verify your catalog and serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before ordering, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number.
