Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 95456-00600 grease fitting designed for?
A: The 95456-00600 is a straight M6 thread grease fitting used on steer and chassis lubrication points on electric and internal combustion lift trucks. This fitting allows centralized grease application to steering assemblies, front axles, and suspension components. Fits Toyota, TCM, and equivalent lift truck models.
Q: What are the cross-reference part numbers for the 95456-00600?
A: The 95456-00600 cross-references to 96456-00600, 96456-00609-71, 05541-12610, 86456-76002-71, 96456-01000-71, and G001153-006000-00. Verify your specific equipment model and serial range, as some cross-references apply only to certain model years.
Q: What does the straight M6 thread design mean for fitment?
A: The straight M6 thread is a metric fastener that screws directly into a threaded bore or boss on the chassis. Do not confuse with tapered (NPT) or banjo fittings. The M6 threads must not be forced or cross-threaded, as this strips the mounting hole and causes grease leakage.
Q: How does the 95456-00600 perform in cold storage or wet floor environments?
A: The 95456-00600 fitting itself is durable stainless or hardened steel. Use cold-resistant or polyurea-based NLGI Grade 2 grease in cold storage and water-resistant grease on wet floors. Steering joints in these environments experience accelerated wear; increase lubrication frequency to every 250 to 500 operating hours.
Q: What maintenance issues occur if the 95456-00600 fitting becomes blocked or damaged?
A: A blocked or damaged grease fitting prevents lubrication, leading to dry bearing noise, steering stiffness, and accelerated wear on the front axle and steering column. Replace the fitting immediately if it does not accept grease gun pressure. Continued operation without lubrication will result in component failure and potential loss of steering control.
