Pin for Demag AC80-1

The pin, identified by part number 587 972 40, is a mechanical component engineered for the Demag AC80-1 crane. It functions as a fastener that is inserted through aligned holes in multiple machine parts to hold them together. This component is designed to facilitate secure connections within the crane structure, including articulating joints, boom sections, and hydraulic cylinder mounts. By maintaining precise alignment between connected members, it ensures the structural integrity of the assembly during operation.

This specific part is compatible with the Demag AC80-1 model. It is designed to fit into designated connection points where secure fastening is required for the machine to operate within its specified parameters.

In heavy machinery, pins of this type act as load-bearing pivots or fixed connectors. They are subjected to shear and bending forces as the machine moves or lifts loads. Proper installation and regular inspection of these fasteners are necessary to maintain the alignment of the crane components and to ensure that forces are distributed evenly across the connection points throughout the machine's structural system.
