Makita 216008-6 — Steel ball, 4.0 mm diameter, original Makita replacement designed to restore crisp detent, clutch and selector action in worn mechanisms.
Compact and precisely finished: hardened steel, precision-ground sphere (Ø 4.0 mm) for reliable seating and low friction in bearing races and detent pockets — a simple part that fixes play, uneven engagement, or a sticky clutch.
Compatibility: commonly fitted in Makita 7-1/4" circular saws (5007NK / 5007 series) and used across a range of drills, jigsaws and other models — example applications reported include 5007NK, 5007MG/5007MGA, 4302C, 4329, JV100D and several handheld drill and saw models. This makes it a handy spare when servicing Makita power tool parts that use small detent/ball assemblies.
Why choose this part: it’s an original Makita steel ball made to the same size and tolerance as the original component, so it drops into the original seat with no modification. Ideal when a single worn ball is the cause of intermittent tool function.
Note: listed as Makita part number 216008-6.
