Why Choose the Lovato GAX7070 Shaft Extension?

The Lovato GAX7070 is a genuine shaft extension for door-coupling handles, designed to provide a secure mechanical connection between compatible Lovato external operating handles and switch disconnectors installed inside electrical enclosures. It enables safe, reliable external operation of enclosed isolators in industrial control panels and switchgear.

Manufactured with a 70 mm length and a 5 mm square shaft profile, the GAX7070 is ideal where additional shaft length is required between the panel door and the switch mechanism. It is designed for use with Lovato GAX61-GAX64, GAX61B-GAX64B, GAX67B, together with the GAX5000, GAX5001 mechanical interlocks and GAX6000 coupling system.
