Description
Overview:
Ring 17 is a genuine Makita spare designed to secure rotating components within compatible cut-off saws. Made from tough, wear‐resistant steel, it sits in a shaft groove to hold parts such as flanges or wheels in place, helping maintain alignment and smooth running. This precision-formed ring is built for the stresses of metal-cutting applications and routine site use. It is intended for use with Makita chop saws, including the 2414EN and LW1400, and matches the original equipment specification for reliable fit and function. Supplied to Makita's quality standards and marked by OEM No. 257255-0, it is suitable for preventative maintenance or like-for-like replacement when the original ring shows wear, deformation, or loss of spring tension.
Key Features:
- Genuine Makita part for assured compatibility and performance
- Precision fit to the original groove profile for secure retention
- Durable steel construction resists fatigue and deformation under load
- Helps maintain accurate wheel/flange positioning and smooth operation
- Supports safe cutting performance by preventing unwanted axial movement
- Suitable for routine servicing and quick repairs to minimise downtime
- Consistent quality and traceability via OEM No. 257255-0
- Straightforward installation with appropriate circlip/retaining ring pliers
- Designed for harsh workshop and site environments
- Cost-effective way to restore saw performance without replacing major assemblies
Typical Applications:
Used during maintenance or repair of Makita cut-off saws to secure components on a spindle or shaft, especially around the wheel mounting area. Ideal when refurbishing the drive side of the tool, replacing worn fixings, or resolving play that affects cut accuracy. Suitable for routine inspections on tools that see frequent abrasive cutting work.
