Description
Overview:
The Slide Sleeve (part no. 450098-1) is a genuine Makita component used in selected electric demolition hammers to guide and support the hammering mechanism. Precision-moulded from a durable engineering polymer, it provides a smooth sliding surface for the internal striker assembly, helping to maintain alignment, reduce play, and protect mating parts. This improves impact consistency and reduces wear inside the tool over time. Designed for heavy site and workshop use, it is suitable for routine servicing or repair where the original sleeve has become worn. Purpose-made for Makita demolition hammers such as the HM0860C and HM0870C, it offers the correct fit and function without modification, helping to keep your tool performing reliably under demanding conditions.
Key Features:
- Genuine Makita OEM part for assured fit and performance
- Made from a tough, wear-resistant polymer for long service life
- Helps restore smooth sliding action and correct internal alignment
- Reduces friction and play, supporting consistent impact energy
- Contributes to lower vibration and noise when the hammer is under load
- Aids in protecting internal parts from dust and debris ingress
- Straightforward replacement during routine maintenance or repair
- Compatible with standard Makita lubricants used in the hammer mechanism
- Built to handle continuous professional use on site or in the workshop
- Supports overall tool longevity and reliability
Typical Applications:
Used during maintenance of Makita demolition hammers to replace a worn slide sleeve that causes excess play, reduced impact efficiency, or rough operation. Common in rebuilds after prolonged chiselling and breaking work on concrete, brick, stone, or asphalt. Suitable for trades, hire fleets, and DIY users seeking to keep their hammer running smoothly and to prevent premature wear of the striker and housing components.
