Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CT 32535 bearing designed for?
A: The CT 32535 is a high-precision rolling element bearing for Caterpillar electric lift trucks. It supports continuous rotation and moderate loading in mast, linkage, and wheel assemblies with through-hardened raceways and Class 3 ABEC-rated steel balls.
Q: What material composition does the CT 32535 bearing have?
A: The CT 32535 features high-carbon chromium steel raceways with through-hardening for wear resistance and load distribution. Rolling elements are precision-grade steel balls to ABEC Class 3 specifications, ensuring consistent radial clearance and smooth operation.
Q: Which lift truck models and applications use the CT 32535 bearing?
A: The CT 32535 is compatible with Caterpillar electric lift trucks in mast pivot points, linkage assemblies, and wheel support positions. Verify your specific model and serial range to confirm correct bearing fit and load rating.
Q: How long does the CT 32535 bearing last in typical lift truck service?
A: Bearing lifespan depends on load cycles, mast frequency, and maintenance practices. Replace if you notice radial play, grinding noise, or resistance during manual mast operation. Overloading or contaminated lubricant reduces service life.
Q: What are the dimensions and load specifications for the CT 32535 bearing?
A: The CT 32535 bearing dimensions and load ratings are specific to mast, linkage, or wheel assembly requirements. Confirm bore diameter, outer diameter, width, and dynamic load capacity with your equipment manual before ordering.
Q: Are there cross-reference or equivalent bearing part numbers for the CT 32535?
A: The CT 32535 is the OEM Caterpillar specification. Always verify exact bearing dimensions, load ratings, and bore specs before substituting with equivalent parts from other manufacturers.
