Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the thread size and type of this grease fitting?
A: SKU 1.20E+17 is a standard grease fitting with metric or NPT thread specifications. Contact us with your equipment model or current fitting to confirm thread size (typically M10, M8, or 1/4 NPT). Verify thread pitch and length before ordering.
Q: What type of grease does this fitting accommodate?
A: This grease fitting (SKU 1.20E+17) accepts standard NLGI Grade 2 lithium, polyurea, or complex grease used in pallet jacks and material handling equipment. Do not use light machine oil or low-viscosity lubricants. Use only grease compatible with sealed or shielded bearings.
Q: Which equipment brands use this grease fitting?
A: This grease fitting is compatible with load wheel assemblies, pivot points, and bearing housings on Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster equipment. Cross-reference your OEM part number with SKU 1.20E+17 to confirm compatibility.
Q: How often should I inject grease through this fitting?
A: Grease intervals depend on operating conditions and equipment design. Most pallet jack load wheels require re-lubrication every 50-100 operating hours or quarterly in normal warehouse use. Heavy use or cold storage operations may require more frequent intervals. Follow your equipment manufacturer maintenance schedule.
Q: What happens if the grease fitting becomes clogged or damaged?
A: A clogged or damaged grease fitting prevents proper bearing lubrication, leading to premature bearing wear, increased friction, and eventual failure. Replace the fitting promptly. A backed-out or missing fitting also allows dirt and moisture to enter the bearing cavity and accelerate deterioration.
