Raymond Right-Hand Pivot Block – E-8808

Raymond builds this right-hand pivot block as the load-bearing hinge point for a moving assembly on its electric lift trucks, machined to locate and carry a pivoting member on the truck's right side. Handedness is the fact that separates it from its mirror-image mate, so a shop ordering by side needs the right-hand unit rather than the left-hand counterpart that shares the same design in reverse.

As a pivot block, its job is to hold a shaft or pin at a fixed location while allowing controlled rotation, taking the side load and wear that a bearing surface sees over thousands of duty cycles. At roughly one and three-quarter pounds it is a compact, solid component rather than a large casting, sized to a specific mounting on the Raymond chassis.

Handedness makes matching straightforward: check that the original coming off the truck is the right-hand block and not the left, since the two look similar but mount on opposite sides. Forklifts Etc. supplies it as a direct Raymond replacement for the worn or damaged block already in place.
