Original Metabo covering strip — part no. 343353340. This is the small molded trim/covering strip that fits into the tool housing to hide and protect a seam on Metabo corded tools; it’s listed as item 12 on the KU 6870 parts diagram and is supplied as a single replacement piece.
Fits (examples): Metabo KU 6870 series (type numbers 06870002 / 06870003 / 06870423) and related KU‑series nibblers, and is also referenced for the Metabo WBE 700 angle drill (type 00512000 / 600512000 and related variants).
Why this part matters: a cracked or missing covering strip leaves the housing edge exposed and can allow dirt or metal chips to intrude; replacing it restores the original fit-and‑finish and helps protect internal components. The part is the original Metabo replacement specified in the official parts lists.
If you need this exact piece, order Metabo part number 343353340 (listed as “Covering strip”) to ensure direct fit with the models above.
