Ridgid 26437 Shifting Fork

Product Description

The RIDGID 26437 is a shifting fork replacement part designed for use in RIDGID power tools. The shifting fork is an internal mechanical component that engages and disengages gear sets or drive mechanisms, enabling speed or function selection within a tool. This part is typically installed by equipment repair technicians or experienced trade professionals performing tool maintenance or rebuilds.
