DescriptionThe whole story▼

Shaft 8/525.5, Öhlins part number 15454-02. Öhlins hardens and surface-treats its shafts because a scratch on the running surface takes the seal with it.

Where It Sits

The published figures are 8 mm, 525.5 mm. Measure the old part against them before ordering. Öhlins offers shafts in several lengths per diameter because the stroke differs by model. Shaft straightness matters: a bent shaft drags in the seal head and destroys the seal within hours. Its polished section runs directly in the seal, so any mark there ends the seal's life quickly.

Genuine Service Part

Öhlins publishes dimensions for its service parts so a workshop can verify before it fits. This is an original Öhlins part, not an aftermarket equivalent — the tolerances are the ones the unit was assembled to. Where a number has been superseded, Öhlins states the replacement — we pass that on. Tell us the damper's model designation and year and we will match the number for you.

Getting the Number Right

Öhlins identifies this position by the number 15454-02 in the exploded view for the unit it belongs to. Check diameter 8 mm, length 525.5 mm against what you have removed; a close size is not the same part. Shaft diameter sets the displaced volume, which is why it is part of the damper's specification. A shaft is measured by diameter and overall length, and both are specific to the unit it belongs to.

Fitting and Setup Service

A damper rebuild is workshop work: it needs the unit dismantled, the shim stack rebuilt in the correct order and the gas charge reset. We are an authorised Öhlins service centre and do exactly that in house — send us the unit or ask us to fit the part with your order.
