LiftMaster K07-5515 Pressure Plate
The LiftMaster K07-5515 is a pressure plate used in the drive system of select heavy-duty commercial slide gate operators. This part helps maintain proper mechanical engagement in the operator drive or clutch-style assembly, depending on the operator configuration. A worn or damaged pressure plate can contribute to slipping, uneven drive engagement, noise, or inconsistent movement under load. For SL580 and SL590 slide gate operators, this type of part should be selected from the model-specific parts breakdown because other pressure plates may look close but have different hole spacing, thickness, or mating hardware requirements.
Compatible With
- LiftMaster SL580 and SL590 commercial slide gate operators where the parts diagram calls for K07-5515, 07-5515, or G075515.
Compatibility should be verified by the operator model number, original part number, and replacement-parts diagram. LiftMaster barrier and commercial gate operator parts often look similar across model families but may use different shafts, collars, hubs, link geometry, or mounting hardware.

Technician Note
Before replacing this part, check the surrounding mechanical assembly for looseness, worn pivot points, damaged shafts, missing set screws, bent linkage, or signs of a gate or arm impact. Replacing one worn part without correcting the cause can lead to repeat failure.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Match the manufacturer part number and any older Q/G/07-series number to the original part or parts diagram.
- Confirm the operator model, series, and mechanical assembly location before ordering.
- Inspect adjacent shafts, cranks, bearings, fasteners, and linkage hardware for damage or wear.
- Do not order by appearance only; similar LiftMaster mechanical parts may not interchange.
Important Ordering Warnings
- Pressure plate problems may be connected to worn clutch, sprocket, shaft, or drive hardware. Inspect the full assembly before replacing parts.
- Do not use this part on other slide operators unless the parts diagram specifically lists K07-5515.
Professional Advisory
Mechanical gate and barrier operator repairs should be performed with the operator secured and power disconnected by a qualified gate technician. If the operator has impact damage, binding, unsafe movement, or high-voltage wiring exposure, have the full system inspected before returning it to service.
Product Q&A
Which LiftMaster models use K07-5515?
K07-5515 is commonly listed for LiftMaster SL580 and SL590 commercial slide gate operators.
What does a pressure plate do in a slide gate operator?
It helps maintain mechanical engagement in the drive or clutch assembly so the operator can transfer force consistently.
Is G075515 related to K07-5515?
Yes, G075515, 075515, and 07-5515 are commonly listed as related or alternate numbers for this pressure plate.
What symptoms can point to a bad pressure plate?
Slipping, inconsistent gate movement, chatter, or visible wear in the drive/clutch area can point to pressure plate or related drive-component issues.
Can this be used on SL575 or SL595 operators?
Do not assume that. Use K07-5515 only where the operator parts diagram lists this pressure plate, with SL580 and SL590 being the supported model references.
