The polished section runs in the seal; a mark there ends the seal's life. A shaft is threaded at both ends: one for the piston, one for the mounting. Chrome or nitride treatment is what lets the shaft run in a seal for thousands of kilometres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Original\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins supports its suspension with individual service parts, which is why a fifteen-year-old damper can still be rebuilt to specification. Öhlins numbers every position so a workshop can order precisely what it needs, not a whole assembly. For a full rebuild, the seal kit plus the wear parts is usually the sensible order. The exploded drawing for your unit names the number; if you do not have it, we do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentifying the Right Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder under 15454-04. Where several sizes share a description, only the number separates them. Check diameter 8 mm, length 520.5 mm against what you have removed; a close size is not the same part. Shaft diameter sets the volume displaced into the reservoir on every compression stroke. The damper shaft carries the piston through the oil and out through the seal head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you would rather not open the damper yourself, we can do it — we are an authorised Öhlins service centre and rebuild these units as a matter of routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 15454-04\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Damper Shafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eLength:\u003c\/em\u003e 520.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53649750294794,"sku":"15454-04","price":103.76,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/15454-04_0dc97033-6b71-4236-b7c6-6c2d5b8b2e5d.png?v=1788876421","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ge\/products\/ohlins-shaft-8-520-5-15454-04","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
