CUP, BEARING
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a bearing cup and how does it differ from a complete bearing assembly?
A: A bearing cup (SKU 655444) is the outer race of a tapered roller bearing set. It pairs with a cone (inner race) and rolling elements. Cups are often ordered separately when only the outer race requires replacement or when you need to service individual bearing components.
Q: Which electric lift trucks use bearing cup 655444?
A: This bearing cup is designed for electric lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Hyster, Raymond, Jungheinrich, and Linde. Typically used in load wheel or steering assemblies. Verify your truck model and bearing location to confirm fitment.
Q: What are the specifications for bearing cup 655444?
A: Outer diameter, inner bore diameter, and width are critical specifications. Bearing cups must match exactly with their corresponding cones and spacers. Provide your equipment model number and we will verify the exact dimensions and confirm compatibility.
Q: Can I order just the cup or do I need the complete bearing set?
A: You can order the cup separately if only the outer race is worn or damaged. However, best practice is to replace matched pairs (cup and cone together) to ensure proper load distribution and bearing life. Our team can advise if a partial rebuild is appropriate for your situation.
Q: How does bearing cup material affect durability in electric lift trucks?
A: Standard bearing cups use hardened steel to withstand heavy radial and axial loads in electric truck applications. Material and heat treatment directly affect wear resistance and bearing life. Verify that replacement cups meet or exceed OEM specifications for your equipment.
Q: Are there equivalent bearing cups for 655444 across different lift truck brands?
A: Bearing cup cross-references depend on bore diameter, outer diameter, and load rating. Different OEMs may use interchangeable cups even though they assign different part numbers. Contact our parts team with your truck model and we will identify compatible alternatives.
