Replacement Drive Shaft for Philips Shavers

This prewave motor drive shaft axis fits Philips models HQ8160, HQ8170, HQ8171, HQ8172, HQ8173, HQ8175, HQ8140XL and HQ8150XL. It is a new component designed to restore the cutting action of a worn shaver. Buyers who need a complete shaver head assembly or a different internal gear will not find those parts here.

Compatibility With Eight Specific Model Numbers

The shaft works only with the eight listed Philips series; verify the model code printed on your device before ordering. No other Philips or third-party models are supported by this part. Using it in an unlisted shaver will cause fitment or performance issues.

Simple Press-Fit Installation With One Precaution

Installation is straightforward: remove the old shaft, clean the razor thoroughly, then press the new axis into place. The most common error is skipping the cleaning step, which lets debris bind the fresh shaft. The part ships without retail packaging but includes the single replacement axis.
