Description
Overview:
The Holding Ring is a genuine Milwaukee service part engineered to secure internal components in selected Milwaukee impact drivers. Made from durable, hardened spring steel, it retains key parts within the driver head to keep the hex chuck and related assemblies correctly seated during high-vibration, high-impact use. Designed as a direct-fit replacement for OEM No. 4931454723, it restores proper retention and helps maintain smooth operation. Purpose-built for Milwaukee's M18FQID and M12FQID platforms, this ring offers a reliable fit without modification. It is suitable for routine servicing and repairs by tradespeople, maintenance teams, and DIY users who need their tools to perform consistently on site and in the workshop, reducing unwanted play and protecting against premature wear.
