If you work with jaw crushers, you have likely heard the term Pitman Assembly (or moving jaw assembly). But what exactly is it, and why does it matter? In this short guide, we will break down the basics and show you the full range of pitman assemblies we offer.
What is a Pitman Assembly?
The pitman assembly is the moving part of a jaw crusher. It houses the pitman (the main body), the jaw dies, jaw crusher toggle plate, and bearings. As the eccentric shaft rotates, the pitman moves back and forth, crushing material against the fixed jaw. It is the heart of the crushing action – without a robust pitman, your crusher can not perform.
Key Components of a Pitman Assembly
Pitman body : The main structure that transfers crushing force.
Eccentric shaft: Drives the pitman’s reciprocating motion.
Bearings: Ensure smooth rotation of the eccentric shaft.
Bearing housings: Support and protect the bearings.
Labyrinth seals: Prevent dust and dirt from entering the bearings.

Why It is Critical ?
The pitman assembly directly affects:
Crushing efficiency: A worn pitman reduces output and increases energy consumption.
Maintenance costs : Regular inspection and timely replacement prevent breakdowns.
Product quality : Proper pitman movement ensures consistent particle size.
How to Choose the Right Pitman Assembly
Match the assembly to your crusher model. Consider:
Material: High manganese steel for durability, or alloy steel for extra strength.
Manufacturing process: Casting vs. forging.
Precision: OEM spec dimensions guarantee perfect fit.
