DescriptionThe whole story▼

Shaft 16/368, Öhlins part number 05508-07. A bent shaft drags in the head and destroys the seal within hours — replace, never straighten.

Key Features

  • Diameter 16 mm
  • Original Öhlins service part
  • Öhlins part number 05508-07
  • Length 368 mm

What It Is

The published figures are 16 mm, 368 mm. Measure the old part against them before ordering. Adjuster shafts run inside the main shaft on units with a rod-through adjuster. Its polished section runs directly in the seal, so any mark there ends the seal's life quickly. The shaft is threaded at both ends: piston at one, mounting at the other.

Why the Original

Suspension is one of the few areas where the original part is genuinely the cheaper decision. Öhlins manufactures service parts on the same lines as production parts — there is no second quality. Send us the model and serial number of your unit and we will confirm the position before you order. Öhlins numbers do not follow a logic you can guess — always read them from the documentation.

Getting the Number Right

05508-07 is the Öhlins number for this position — the same one printed in the service documentation. Check diameter 16 mm, length 368 mm against what you have removed; a close size is not the same part. Öhlins hardens and surface-treats its shafts because a scratch on the running surface takes the seal with it. The shaft is threaded at both ends: piston at one, mounting at the other.

Fitting and Setup Service

Öhlins recommends that its units are serviced by an authorised centre. We are one: rebuild, revalve and setup all happen in our own workshop.
