Shaft – RA1161784

Machined to close tolerances with a consistent surface finish, this Raymond shaft provides the bearing surface that locates and supports moving assemblies in the running gear and linkage of Raymond electric lift trucks. It carries rotational and pivoting loads, keeping connected parts in precise alignment as the linkage articulates and the gear turns under load.

The uniform diameter and finish let bearings, bushings, and mating hardware seat correctly and rotate freely through repeated duty cycles; a shaft that has worn, scored, or bent at a bearing surface lets those parts run loose or bind. Installing the genuine Raymond shaft restores the original clearances and the intended fit of everything riding on it.

Match the replacement to the shaft coming off by its diameter, overall length, and bearing and keyway positions, since those govern whether the mating parts seat in the same places and turn true.
