Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of grease fitting is the 15631500?

Q: Which forklift brands use the 15631500 grease fitting?
A: This grease fitting is compatible with forklifts from Toyota, Crown, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other OEM manufacturers. Confirm the mounting location and thread size on your specific model match before purchase.
Q: How often should the 15631500 fitting be serviced?
A: Grease the 15631500 fitting every 8 to 10 operating hours or per your forklift manufacturer maintenance schedule. Over-greasing creates pressure buildup and seal damage; use only the amount recommended for your equipment.

A: A clogged fitting prevents lubrication and accelerates wear on mast slides and pivot joints, resulting in rough operation, noise, and potential misalignment. A damaged fitting may leak grease or allow dirt ingress. Replace as needed to maintain proper lubrication.
Q: Can I use any grease in the 15631500 fitting?
A: Use only NLGI Grade 2 or similar multipurpose lithium grease compatible with your forklift manufacturer specifications. Using incorrect grease viscosity or type can damage seals and bushings. Always refer to the equipment manual for grease recommendations.
