Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications for SKU 800026239 grease fitting?
A: SKU 800026239 is a grease fitting (also called a grease nipple or zerk) used to lubricate bearing and pivot points on lift trucks and material handling equipment. Standard fittings are either 1/4 inch NPT or 1/8 inch NPT thread size with either a straight or 45-degree angle head. Verify the thread size and orientation required for your equipment before ordering.
Q: Which lift truck components and brands use the 800026239 grease fitting?
A: Grease fittings are universal components found on masts, steering arms, wheel axles, and load pins across Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, and other electric and manual lift truck brands. If your equipment requires periodic greasing, 800026239 is a direct replacement for damaged or missing fittings. Confirm thread size and head angle match your mounting location.
Q: What material is the 800026239 fitting made from?
A: Grease fittings are typically made from hardened steel or stainless steel with a tapered seat and internal ball check valve. The ball check prevents grease from backing out when the grease gun is removed. Stainless steel fittings resist corrosion in wet or cold storage environments. Standard steel fittings are suitable for most indoor warehouse applications.
Q: When should the 800026239 grease fitting be replaced?
A: Replace the fitting if the ball check valve sticks or fails, if grease leaks around the base when greasing, if the fitting is bent or damaged, or if the tapered seat is worn and will not hold a grease gun coupling. A leaking or stuck fitting prevents proper lubrication and can accelerate bearing wear. Replacement is inexpensive and simple compared to bearing failure costs.
Q: Are there cross-references or alternative part numbers for 800026239?
A: Grease fittings are standardized components across equipment brands. The 800026239 is compatible with most 1/4 inch NPT or 1/8 inch NPT threaded bosses on lift trucks. If you need to verify fitment for your equipment, provide the thread size and head angle from your current fitting. We stock multiple fitting types and sizes for different applications.
