SCREW, SHIFT LEVER

$1.67

Description
  1. Function: The screw secures the shift lever in place within the gearshift mechanism, ensuring proper alignment and functionality. It prevents the shift lever from moving or becoming dislodged during operation, thereby enabling smooth and accurate gear shifts.
  2. Design: Typically, the screw has a threaded shaft with a head, which may be Phillips, flat, or hexagonal, allowing it to be tightened using a corresponding tool. The length and diameter of the screw are designed to fit precisely into the designated mounting holes on the shift lever and gearbox assembly.
  3. Material: Screws for shift levers are commonly made from durable materials such as stainless steel, steel, or hardened alloys to withstand the mechanical forces and vibrations experienced during gear shifting. This ensures reliability and longevity in operation.
  4. Installation: Installing the screw involves aligning the shift lever with the mounting holes on the gearbox assembly, inserting the screw through the holes, and tightening it securely using the appropriate tool. Care must be taken not to overtighten the screw, as this could damage the threads or the mounting surface.
  5. Compatibility: Screws for shift levers come in various sizes and thread pitches to accommodate different gearbox assemblies and shift lever designs. It’s crucial to select a screw that matches the specifications of the gearbox and shift lever assembly for proper installation.
