Part 700-252B is a replacement cam base for compatible Helix spray equipment. This component provides the mounting and pivot point for a cam mechanism, enabling precise control of machine functions. When the original base becomes worn, damaged, or corroded, replacement restores proper cam operation.

The 700-252B cam base is a direct replacement component for Helix FR and Helix VR spray equipment. This precision-machined part serves as the foundation and pivot point for a cam mechanism within the equipment. Cams are used to convert rotary motion into linear motion or to provide precise, repeatable positioning of components such as valves, controls, or linkages. The cam base provides a stable mounting surface, ensures proper alignment of the cam with its follower, and often includes bearing surfaces or pivot points for smooth operation. A properly functioning cam base is essential for accurate and reliable cam action, which directly affects the performance of the controlled mechanism. A worn, damaged, or corroded cam base can cause the cam to misalign, bind, or operate erratically, leading to improper machine function. This replacement base is manufactured to exact specifications for fit, alignment, and material strength. Installation may require transferring the cam and any associated hardware from the old base. Regular inspection helps identify base wear before it affects equipment performance.
