Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 100-F217 piston and pin assembly?
A: The 100-F217 is a 0.50mm piston and pin assembly used in forklift hydraulic or pneumatic systems. This component is critical for actuator operation in material handling equipment.
Q: Which forklift models use the 100-F217 piston and pin?
A: Verify compatibility with your specific equipment model and part documentation before ordering. The 0.50mm specification indicates bore or pin diameter. Cross-reference your forklift manual or current part number to confirm this is the correct replacement.
Q: What material is the 100-F217 piston and pin made from?
A: Standard piston and pin assemblies are typically manufactured from hardened steel or aluminum alloy depending on system pressure and application. The 100-F217 is precision-engineered to meet tight tolerances required for hydraulic and pneumatic performance.
Q: How do I know if the 100-F217 needs replacement?
A: Signs of wear include loss of system pressure, slow actuator response, excessive leakage around the piston rod, or visible damage to the pin. If your equipment exhibits these symptoms, have the piston and pin assembly inspected for scoring, wear, or seal damage.
Q: What is the shelf life of the 100-F217?
A: Unused piston and pin assemblies have indefinite shelf life if stored in a dry environment and protected from corrosion. Do not store in high humidity or salt-spray conditions. Keep packaging sealed until ready for use.
