Abstract

A clamp assembly for a lift truck load handler comprising a frame with one or more guide channels and one or more load handler appendages such as forks or clamp arms. The appendages are coupled to arms, each slidingly inserted in one of the guide channels. The guide channels each have a segmented channel bearing set inserted therein. Each segmented channel bearing set has an outer channel bearing set, an inner channel bearing set and a bearing spine. Each of the segmented channel bearing sets is inserted into the first guide channel with an outer channel bearing set closer to a load handler appendage than the inner channel bearing set.
