Makita 346938-8 — Shoe Lock Plate (original Makita)
Keep your reciprocating saw’s shoe secure with this genuine Makita shoe lock plate (part no. 346938-8). It’s the stamped lock plate that anchors the shoe/guide assembly and the lock pin, so a bent or worn plate can cause the shoe to wobble or not hold the blade / foot position correctly. The part is sold as a single replacement plate and is the same service part shown on Makita parts diagrams for the reciprocating saw shoe assembly.
Compatibility (example models)
- Makita DJR187
- Makita DJR360 / DJR360Z.
What you get and how it helps
- One original Makita shoe lock plate (346938-8) ready to drop into the shoe / slider assembly in place of the damaged plate.
- Restores proper shoe retention and alignment so the blade and foot lock operate as designed — a small part that eliminates play and improves cutting stability.
Quick install note
- This part replaces the lock plate shown on the Makita parts diagrams for the shoe / guide assembly (typically listed as item 64 on those diagrams); it mates with the shoe guide plate and lock pin. Simple swap if you’re disassembling the shoe assembly following the tool’s parts diagram.
If your reciprocating saw’s shoe is loose, replacing the 346938-8 shoe lock plate will often restore proper function without replacing larger assemblies.
