DeWalt Bit Holder Chuck Sleeve - N078437
Original DeWalt N078437 — metal sleeve for DeWalt impact drivers and drill/drivers. The sleeve sits inside the nose cone between the compression spring and washer and helps retain the anvil/bit‑holding assembly and spring, so replacing a worn sleeve restores positive bit retention and proper anvil alignment. If your bits are falling out, we highly recommend checking your Sleeve Spring (N019351) and Steel Ball (N089668) at the same time, as these internal parts often wear down together
This is the genuine DeWalt N078437 part, sold individually and ready to drop into the nose assembly; typical repair time is short (many users report 15–30 minutes to access and swap the sleeve after removing the snap ring, washer and spring).
