RA 810-904

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the RA 810-904 cotter pin used for?
A: The RA 810-904 is an OEM Raymond cotter pin used as a mechanical fastener to secure assemblies in electric lift trucks. It prevents component rotation and separation in applications where positive mechanical locking is required beyond friction or press-fit retention alone.

Q: Is the RA 810-904 an OEM specification?
A: Yes. The RA 810-904 is an official OEM Raymond specification part. It is engineered to exact dimensions and material requirements for Raymond electric lift truck assemblies and should not be substituted with generic cotter pins without verification of compatibility.

Q: Are there substitute or cross-reference part numbers for the RA 810-904?
A: No substitute or cross-reference part numbers have been documented for the RA 810-904. It is a unique OEM specification. Always order the exact part number RA 810-904 to ensure proper fit, material, and retention performance in your Raymond equipment.

Q: What makes the RA 810-904 different from a standard cotter pin?
A: The RA 810-904 is precision-manufactured to OEM Raymond specifications for exact dimensional fit and material properties required in electric lift truck assemblies. Standard off-the-shelf cotter pins may have dimensional variations that prevent proper fit or adequate locking performance.

Q: Should I replace the RA 810-904 if it becomes bent or deformed?
A: Yes. A bent or deformed cotter pin cannot provide positive mechanical locking and should be replaced with a new RA 810-904. Do not attempt to reuse or straighten a damaged cotter pin as it may not achieve proper retention and could create a safety hazard in lift truck operation.
