Description
Overview:
This Genuine Makita Line Filter (part no. 688172-7) is a sealed inline suppression module used to stabilise electrical performance in selected Makita power tools. Housed in a compact black, polymer-sleeved body with insulated leads, it helps reduce electrical interference on the motor and switch circuits, supporting smooth running and reliable starting. Intended for use in hammer drills and other Makita machines, it is a direct-fit replacement in models such as the DHR164 rotary hammer and BBO180 sander. Built to Makita's specification for durability and vibration resistance, it restores the tool's original noise-suppression capability and helps protect sensitive components over time. Ideal for routine servicing or when replacing a damaged or failed filter during a wiring or switch repair.
