Description
Overview:
This Grip Base is a genuine Makita part for selected SDS-Plus hammer drills, including BHR242 and BHR243. It is a moulded, impact-resistant polymer collar in a black finish that mounts around the tool body to locate and stabilise the auxiliary (side) handle. By keeping the handle securely in place, it improves control, comfort, and safety during drilling and chiselling. The internal diameter is approximately 50 mm (approx 2 in) to match the original specification. Use it as a direct replacement when the existing base is worn, cracked, or loose. As an OEM component (MPN 453129-5), it helps maintain the drill's balance and performance, restoring the correct fit of the handle assembly without modifying the tool.
