Grease Fitting for Forklift

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a grease fitting and where is it used?
A: A grease fitting, also called a zerk fitting, is a one-way valve that allows lubricant to be injected into machinery joints and pivot points. Forklift and lift truck fittings enable consistent greasing of mast assemblies, steering components, and load wheels.

Q: Will SKU 220022915 fit my equipment?
A: This grease fitting is compatible with multiple forklift models from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, and Clark. Confirm the fitting size (typically 1/4-inch or 1/8-inch) and threaded port dimensions on your equipment.

Q: What material construction does this grease fitting have?
A: Grease fittings are typically constructed from carbon steel or stainless steel bodies with hardened steel internal check valves. Stainless variants offer superior corrosion resistance in wet or cold storage environments.

Q: How often should grease fittings be serviced?
A: Maintenance frequency depends on equipment usage intensity and environmental conditions. Inspect fittings regularly for damage or blockages. Replace damaged fittings immediately to maintain proper lubrication routes and prevent bearing wear.
