Toggle Plate

Listing ID #250177

We are Offering Toggle Plate.
The bottom of the pitman is supported by a reflex-curved piece of metal called the toggle plate. It serves the purpose of allowing the bottom of the pitman to move up and down with the motion of the eccentric shaft as well as serve as a safety mechanism for the entire jaw. Should a piece of non-crushable material such as a steel loader tooth (sometimes called "tramp iron") enter the jaw and be larger than the closed side setting it can't be crushed nor pass through the jaw. In this case, the toggle plate will crush and prevent further damage. We offer heavy duty, mold steel casting with heat treatment.
