If you’re searching for Makita PA6-GF30 parts, you’ve probably seen PA6-GF30 moulded into the plastic casing of your Makita power tool and assumed it was a part number or model number.
It’s an easy mistake to make — but PA6-GF30 is not a Makita part number or model number. It is simply a manufacturing code used to describe the type of plastic the part is made from.
Understanding this can save you time and help you find the correct replacement part for your Makita power tool.
The marking PA6-GF30 is a standard plastic material code used worldwide in manufacturing, not a PA6-GF30 part number:
PA6 = Polyamide 6 (nylon)
GF30 = 30% glass fibre reinforcement
This means the casing or component is made from strong, reinforced nylon.
It does not identify the spare part or tool model.
You’ll often find PA6-GF30 stamped into:
Tool housings
Handles
Battery casings
Motor covers
Gearbox shells
Because it’s clearly visible, many users search for “makita pa6-gf30 parts” thinking it refers to the exact component they need.
Makita spare part numbers:
Are usually 8–10 digits
Appear on exploded parts diagrams
Are linked to a specific model and type
The PA6-GF30 marking only identifies the plastic material, not the actual Makita component.
Multiple different Makita tools can use PA6-GF30 plastic, but their housings and internal parts are completely different.
So this marking:
❌ Does not identify your Makita model
❌ Does not tell you which casing you need
❌ Cannot be used to order a spare part
That’s why searching for Makita parts using PA6-GF30 part almost always leads to confusion.
Instead of using the PA6-GF30 marking, you should look for:
Makita model number (e.g. DHP453, DHS680, GA5030)
Type or serial number
Exploded diagram reference
With the correct model number, you can match:
Switches
Carbon brushes
Armatures
Field coils
Gearboxes
Housings
This ensures you get a part that actually fits your tool.
If you searched for Makita PA6-GF30 parts, what you really need is likely a replacement part for your Makita power tool, not the plastic material code itself.

Makita drills and drivers
Makita angle grinders
Makita circular saws
Makita SDS hammers
Makita sanders and planers

Users searching for this term are often actually looking for:
Makita housing replacement
Makita drill casing
Makita plastic body
Makita shell part
Makita spare parts by marking
If that’s you, the PA6-GF30 marking isn’t wrong — it’s just not useful for identifying the correct spare part.
To summarise:
Makita PA6-GF30 is not a part number
It is a plastic material identification code
It appears on many Makita tool casings
It cannot be used to order spare parts
Always search using your Makita model number instead
If your Makita power tool needs repair, the correct spare part will always be listed by the model and diagram reference — never by the PA6-GF30 marking.
