Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electric lift truck models accept the SY43180 axle?
A: The SY43180 axle is designed for electric pallet jacks and lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale. This axle typically serves as a steer or load axle assembly. Verify wheel bore diameter, axle length, and load rating match your equipment before ordering.
Q: What are the key specifications of the SY43180 axle?
A: The SY43180 specifications include overall length, wheel bore size (typically 1 inch or similar metric equivalent), rated load capacity, and material composition. These dimensions are critical for proper fitment and load distribution. Always verify against your equipment manual.
Q: What materials is the SY43180 made from and why?
A: The SY43180 is typically forged or cast steel to withstand high repeated stress and impact loads in warehouse environments. Steel composition resists fatigue cracking and maintains dimensional stability under sustained pressure.
Q: What failure symptoms indicate an axle replacement is needed?
A: Signs of axle failure include excessive wheel wobble or lateral play, cracked or bent axle visible on inspection, unusual noise during operation, or uneven tire wear. A compromised axle reduces steering control and increases tip or rollover risk.
Q: How long does the SY43180 axle typically last?
A: Under normal warehouse conditions, the SY43180 axle typically lasts 5 to 8 years. Heavy outdoor use, impact damage, or overloading can reduce service life. Regular wheel alignment checks help extend axle life.
Q: Are there OEM equivalent part numbers for the SY43180?
A: The SY43180 is a direct replacement for OEM axles across electric lift truck platforms. Cross-reference your original part number and verify overall length and wheel bore specifications before ordering.
