    I have an M18 Milwaukee Fuel impact driver. The belt clip has a screw that screws into some brass piece. Somehow the brass piece fell off and I had to attach the belt clip on the other side of the drill. Whenever I try to look for a belt clip replacement piece it doesn't include that brass piece. What is the actual name of that piece so I can buy something similar to it? Otherwise the screw cant thread onto anything.

    I'm tired of these mediocre "semi flammable" refrigerants. If we're going to do it let's do it right.

    It’s a nutsert.

    But what it really is, an excuse for the shop to buy you a new drill.
