Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the thread size and dimension of the 3131315 grease fitting?
A: The 3131315 is a straight or angled grease fitting with standard metric or NPT thread specifications designed for forklift pivot points and bearing locations. Confirm the thread size and body length against your equipment lubrication points before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What forklift and pallet jack models use the 3131315 grease fitting?
A: The 3131315 grease fitting is compatible with electric and manual forklifts from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and CAT. This fitting type is common for mast pivot, load wheel, and steering linkage lubrication points across multiple OEM brands.
Q: What material is the 3131315 grease fitting made from?
A: This grease fitting is constructed from zinc-plated steel or stainless steel designed to resist corrosion and withstand impact from material handling operations. The ball check valve prevents grease backflow and contamination when the grease gun is removed.
Q: How often should the 3131315 grease fitting be serviced?
A: Grease the 3131315 location every 8-40 hours of equipment operation depending on manufacturer recommendations and operating conditions. Heavy-use equipment requires more frequent greasing. Worn or stuck fittings should be replaced to maintain proper bearing lubrication.
Q: What indicates the 3131315 grease fitting needs replacement?
A: Replace the fitting if it is stripped, leaking grease, or the ball check valve is stuck and will not accept grease from the gun. A broken fitting allows grease to escape and permits water and contamination to enter bearing locations, accelerating bearing wear.
