Raymond Steering Hand Wheel Knob – RA828-005-714

This steering hand wheel knob is built for Raymond lift trucks, mounting to the steering wheel to give the operator a fixed grip point for quick, one-handed steering during tight-aisle maneuvering. Spinner knobs like this one let an operator rotate the steering wheel through a full turn without repositioning their hand, which speeds up direction changes in narrow warehouse aisles.

The knob weighs 0.35 pounds, a weight consistent with a solid knob assembly that includes both the grip handle and its mounting hardware for attachment to the steering wheel rim.

As a component that endures constant hand pressure and rotational torque throughout a shift, a steering knob can loosen at its mounting point or wear at its rotating bearing surface over time. A worn knob typically shows up as play or wobble in the grip, a knob that spins freely without turning the wheel, or looseness that makes precise steering harder to control. Replacing the knob restores a secure, responsive connection between the operator's hand and the steering wheel. Forklifts Etc. stocks this knob as a Raymond-specific replacement part.
