Precision-machined helical tooth profile (right‑hand helix), 39 teeth; listed dimensions are roughly bore Ø17 mm with an overall gear diameter ≈31.5 mm (spec listed as d17 × 31.5) — tiny but critical for proper meshing and quiet operation.
Designed to fit the Makita 9046 series (110/230 V variants shown in parts diagrams), this original Makita part restores correct gear alignment and reduces wear on mating components when replacing a damaged or worn gear. When you need a straightforward repair part, it’s the exact item to keep among your power tool parts.
Lightweight (around 40g) and sold individually, the 226430-9 is a direct, drop‑in replacement — ideal if you’re repairing a single tool and want the original Makita spec part to bring the sander back to proper performance.
