Description
Overview:
The Gear Housing Gasket is a genuine Makita replacement part for cordless hedge trimmers, including the DUN500W and DUN600. It sits between the gear case and its cover to create a reliable seal, keeping factory grease inside the head and stopping dust and moisture from entering. Made from durable, oil‐resistant gasket material, it holds its shape under heat and vibration to protect the gears and bearings within the drive head. Using the correct OEM gasket (Makita 422568-0) restores proper sealing after maintenance or when the original gasket is worn, crushed, or torn. This like‐for‐like part helps maintain smooth transmission, reduces premature wear, and supports consistent cutting performance in day‐to‐day use.
Key Features:
- Genuine Makita OEM part for assured compatibility and performance
- Exact fit for listed models for quick, no‐modification installation
- Durable gasket material resists oil, grease, heat, and vibration
