Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electric lift trucks use the A251738 wheel cylinder?
A: The A251738 wheel cylinder is compatible with electric pallet jacks and lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and similar manufacturers. Verify bore size and mounting configuration match your equipment before ordering. OEM part number is A251738.
Q: What are the specifications for the A251738 wheel cylinder?
A: The A251738 is a hydraulic wheel cylinder used in the steering or drive system of electric lift trucks. Specifications include bore diameter, rod diameter, and pressure rating. Check your equipment manual for exact dimensions and flow requirements to ensure correct replacement.
Q: What materials are used in the A251738 cylinder construction?
A: The A251738 features a ductile iron or aluminum housing with precision-machined bore, hardened steel rod, and elastomer seals rated for hydraulic fluid. This construction provides durability under repeated cycling and load conditions typical of warehouse electric lift truck operation.
Q: What is the typical service life of the A251738 wheel cylinder?
A: Service life depends on duty cycle, hydraulic fluid condition, and maintenance. Cylinders typically operate 5,000 to 10,000 hours before seal degradation occurs. Replace when leakage appears around the rod or when pressure response becomes sluggish. Regular hydraulic fluid analysis and filter changes extend cylinder life.
Q: What seals are included in the A251738 assembly?
A: The A251738 contains rod seals and piston seals made from nitrile or fluorocarbon elastomers compatible with ISO 46 hydraulic oil. These seals maintain pressure and prevent internal and external leakage. Seal material selection affects compatibility with synthetic fluids and operating temperature range.
