Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the 2021895 grease fitting?
A: The 2021895 is a 1/8 inch NPT (National Pipe Taper) standard straight grease fitting made from carbon steel. It is rated for automotive and industrial lubrication systems with service pressures suitable for manual and electric lift truck applications. Thread form is NPT for reliable sealing.
Q: What lift truck equipment types use the 2021895 grease fitting?
A: The 2021895 is compatible with electric lift trucks, electric pallet jacks, and some internal combustion equipment from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other manufacturers. Verify the lubrication point threaded hole is 1/8 inch NPT before ordering. Using incorrect thread size will cause leakage.
Q: What is the material and durability of the 2021895 fitting?
A: The 2021895 is constructed from carbon steel providing corrosion resistance suitable for warehouse and dock environments. Carbon steel withstands normal operating pressures without stripping or damage. Inspect periodically for grease blockage or damage to the threaded point.
Q: How do I identify if I need a 1/8 inch NPT fitting versus other sizes?
A: Measure the grease lubrication port thread hole on your equipment. The 2021895 1/8 inch NPT fitting will thread cleanly into 1/8 inch NPT ports. Do not force a fitting into a mismatched port as this will damage the threads. Cross-reference your equipment manual for correct fitting size and thread type.
Q: What is the typical service life of the 2021895 grease fitting?
A: The 2021895 typically lasts 3 to 7 years depending on lubrication frequency and pressure cycles. Replace if you observe grease leakage around the fitting base, difficulty in seating a grease gun, or visible corrosion at the threaded base. A failing fitting can contaminate bearing assemblies.
