Description
Overview:
The Front Hand Guard for Makita cordless chainsaws is a genuine replacement part designed for safe, reliable operation on the DUC355Z and DUC405Z. Made from impact‐resistant polymer with a robust moulded profile, it forms a protective barrier in front of the front handle to help keep your hand clear of the chain. The guard is engineered to withstand vibration, chain oil, resin, and outdoor conditions typical of arborist and grounds care work. As an OEM component (458418-3), it matches the original dimensions and mounting points for a straightforward refit, and it interfaces correctly with the existing safety systems on these models. Ideal for restoring equipment to factory safety standards after wear, damage or routine servicing.

- Genuine Makita part for assured compatibility and build quality
- OEM No. 458418-3 for precise fit and correct operation
- Tough, oil‐resistant polymer construction for long service life
- Accurate moulding and mounting points for quick installation using existing fixings
- Helps protect the operator's leading hand during cutting tasks
- Interfaces properly with the saw's safety mechanisms on compatible models
- Stable performance under vibration and in low temperatures
- Black finish to match the chainsaw body
- Suitable for trade, hire fleet, and domestic users maintaining Makita cordless saws
Typical Applications:
Routine maintenance or repair of Makita DUC355Z and DUC405Z chainsaws where the original guard is cracked, worn, or missing. Useful after accidental impact or heavy use to restore safe handling. Appropriate for arboriculture, landscaping, grounds maintenance, and firewood cutting where consistent hand protection is required.
