Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the CT 971010 bearing cup and what does it do?
A: The CT 971010 is a bearing cup that serves as the outer raceway for wheel or load wheel assemblies on material handling equipment. It works with a matching bearing cone to provide smooth rotation and load support for wheels, casters, and drive wheels on pallet jacks and forklifts.

A: The CT 971010 bearing cup is designed to fit CAT Caterpillar model 6600 pallet jacks. It may be compatible with other CAT lift trucks using the same wheel assembly specifications, but always verify compatibility with your exact equipment model and serial number range before ordering.

Q: What are the dimensions and material specifications?
A: The CT 971010 bearing cup dimensions are tailored to fit the wheel hub bore and match with a specific bearing cone size. It is typically made from steel or alloy steel with precision grinding for smooth operation. Provide your equipment specifications when ordering to confirm correct fit and size.

Q: How long does a bearing cup typically last?
