Milwaukee Wheel Guard Kit 9 in.
Model Number: 49-12-0345
The Milwaukee 49-12-0345 is a genuine OEM 9 in. Wheel Guard Kit replacement for compatible Milwaukee 9 in. angle grinders — a complete guard kit providing the mandatory safety component that shields the operator from grinding wheel fragments, sparks, and debris during grinder operation. The grinding wheel guard is a required safety component under OSHA standards and Milwaukee's tool operating requirements — it must be installed and properly adjusted at all times during angle grinder operation and must never be removed or modified. A cracked, damaged, or missing wheel guard is immediate grounds for removing the tool from service until the guard is replaced with a correct OEM component. The kit format provides the complete guard assembly and associated hardware needed for a full, ready-to-install guard replacement rather than requiring separate identification and ordering of individual components.
Replacing a worn or damaged guard with a genuine Milwaukee OEM kit ensures the correct guard geometry for the wheel diameter, correct clearance between the guard and the wheel's outer diameter, and the structural integrity engineered to function as a protective barrier in the event of a wheel failure at grinder operating speed. Always verify compatibility with your specific Milwaukee 9 in. grinder model number and serial number before ordering, as guard specifications vary between grinder models even at the same wheel diameter. Consult Milwaukee's parts lookup at milwaukeetool.com to confirm the correct wheel guard kit for your specific grinder.
