Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What material is the RA 850-115 woodruff key made from?
A: The RA 850-115 is manufactured from carbon steel per ANSI B17.2 standard. This material provides the hardness and shear strength required for precision torque transmission in rotating shaft applications without permanent deformation.
Q: Is the RA 850-115 compatible with all Raymond electric lift trucks?
A: The RA 850-115 is designed for Raymond industrial equipment. Compatibility depends on shaft diameter, hub bore, and drive configuration. Verify your equipment part list or serial range before ordering to confirm this is the correct specification.
Q: What is the difference between the RA 850-114 and RA 850-115?
A: Both are keys for Raymond lift trucks. The RA 850-115 is a woodruff key with ANSI B17.2 carbon steel specification. Dimensions, fit tolerances, and application context differ; use the correct part number for your equipment to ensure proper torque transmission.
Q: What happens if I use the wrong key specification on a Raymond shaft?
A: Using an incorrect key can result in shaft slip, loss of drive engagement, or component damage. Keys must match shaft keyway dimensions and hub specifications exactly. Always verify the OEM part number matches your equipment documentation before use.
Q: How do I know if a woodruff key like RA 850-115 needs replacement?
A: Signs of key wear or failure include slipping between shaft and hub, loss of drive torque, unusual noise during operation, or visible damage to the key. If torque is not transmitting properly, inspect the key and keyway for wear or fractures.
