Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is grease fitting SKU 1412520 and what equipment does it fit?
A: Grease fitting 1412520 is a standard zerk-type fitting for manual and electric pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster. It provides lubrication access points to wheel bearings and load wheel assemblies. Verify the thread size and length match your equipment before ordering.
Q: How often should I apply grease through this fitting?
A: Grease application frequency depends on usage intensity. High-cycle warehouse environments require greasing every 50 to 100 operating hours. Lower-use applications may only need greasing monthly or quarterly. Check your equipment manual for manufacturer-specific maintenance intervals.
Q: What type of grease should I use with this fitting?
A: Use lithium-based or polyurea grease compatible with material handling equipment. Multi-purpose NLGI Grade 2 grease works for most applications. Do not mix grease types; purge old grease before applying new product to prevent contamination and bearing failure.
Q: Can this fitting be replaced if damaged or broken?
A: Yes, if the grease fitting becomes cracked, seized, or cannot be accessed, it can be replaced. Ensure the replacement fitting has matching thread size (typically 1/4 inch NPT) and length to prevent leakage or improper sealing.
