Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which forklift models use grease fitting 14357580?
A: This grease fitting is used on specific Toyota, Hyster, Jungheinrich, or Clark forklift models. The exact compatibility depends on the equipment series and production year. Compare the fitting thread size and connection point on your mast or hydraulic cylinders to confirm before ordering.
Q: What is the difference between 14357580 and 14352740?
A: These are separate part numbers that may differ in thread size, length, or material composition. Without part specifications, verify the exact fitting diameter, thread type (NPT or metric), and application point on your forklift. Order the correct part number to avoid installation issues.
Q: How do I replace a damaged grease fitting 14357580?
A: Contact us with your forklift model and serial number for replacement guidance. We can confirm the fitting specifications and ensure you receive the correct part. Do not use incorrect thread sizes or materials, as they may leak or strip during service.
Q: Can grease fitting 14357580 be used in cold storage environments?
A: Yes, the fitting itself operates in cold storage. However, you must use cold-storage-rated grease (typically ISO VG 32 or formulated for sub-zero conditions) to maintain proper lubrication. Standard lithium grease becomes too thick below 0 degrees Fahrenheit and will not flow through the fitting.
Q: What pressure should I use when greasing through fitting 14357580?
A: Use standard hand grease gun pressure (typically 5000 to 15000 PSI). Do not use powered grease guns unless specified by the forklift manufacturer, as excess pressure can damage seals or burst hydraulic lines. Pump until grease appears at bearing seals or you feel resistance.
