Crown Shaft CR083956 – E-2243

Machined to Crown Equipment's specification for its lift truck platforms, this Crown shaft transmits rotational force or supports a rotating component within an assembly, turned to a specific diameter and length so mating bearings, gears, or couplings seat on it precisely and rotate without excess play.

Because the shaft carries torque and, depending on its position, bending load from the parts mounted to it, wear at its bearing journals or keyway introduces play that transfers into everything riding on it. A shaft with wear grooves, scoring, or out-of-round journals should be replaced before that wear spreads into the bearings and components it supports.

It is cataloged for Crown lift truck applications and reproduces the journal diameters and keying of the assembly it was designed for. Match those bearing surfaces and the keyway to the shaft being replaced, since shafts of similar length differ by journal size and drive feature.
