The 81255056990 MAN Shift Knob delivers precision gear selection through its automatic circular control interface, engineered for MAN TGX/TGS/TGA series (2000-2025 EU trucks). This 0.13kg component features glass-fiber reinforced polyamide construction with tactile position markers, maintaining compatibility across six transmission variants. The 54mm diameter control surface integrates haptic feedback technology while preserving OEM electrical connector patterns.

Optimized for high-cycle operation in extreme environments (-30°C to +85°C), the shift knob's anti-microbial coating resists chemical degradation from handling fluids. The 15° ergonomic tilt reduces driver fatigue during multi-gear shifts, with vibration dampeners absorbing 4.2G shock loads.

Technical Architecture

Manufactured with ISO 16750-3 certified materials, the control knob withstands 250N axial forces during gear engagement. The modular assembly allows single-component replacement without disassembling the entire shift column. Precision-molded PBT-GF30 housing ensures EMI/RFI shielding for adjacent CAN bus systems.

Cross-Platform Integration

Validated across four generations of MAN truck platforms (1970-2025), including TGL/TGM variants with modified shift patterns. The universal mounting collar adapts to 28mm-34mm shift lever diameters without requiring adapter sleeves. Maintains full functionality with automated manual transmissions and hybrid powertrain configurations.
