Bail Shaft Lock Ring #65

$6.99

Product details

This bail shaft lock ring (#65, part #12979) is a small replacement retainer that secures the bail shaft on the vacuum handle mechanism. The ring holds the shaft in position so the bail, the pivoting handle release, stays properly located and moves the way it was designed to.

A lock ring can stretch, deform, or drop off with repeated handle movement, and once it does the bail shaft can shift or work loose. That leaves the handle release sloppy or unreliable and can let related parts wander out of place. Fitting a fresh lock ring restores a secure, properly retained shaft.

  • Part: bail shaft lock ring #65, part #12979
  • Function: retains the bail shaft in its correct position
  • Benefit: keeps the handle release secure and consistent
  • Tip: seat the ring fully in its groove so it holds under load

Match the part number to your existing ring before ordering. With the correct lock ring in place, the bail shaft stays retained and the handle mechanism operates smoothly.
