Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What Caterpillar equipment does the CT 1009299 caster fit?
A: The CT 1009299 is a zinc-plated caster with lube axle designed for Caterpillar NPP 60 electric pallet trucks. Verify your equipment model matches before ordering.

Q: What is a lube axle caster and when would I need it?

Q: How do I verify the CT 1009299 is compatible with my equipment?

A: Cross-reference part numbers depend on your specific Caterpillar model. Contact us with your equipment details and we can identify equivalent casters from other manufacturers.
Q: How should I maintain the zinc-plated finish?
A: Periodically wipe the caster with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid prolonged exposure to salt spray or corrosive chemicals. Lubricate the axle bearing according to your Caterpillar equipment maintenance schedule.
Q: What bearing grease should I use for the lube axle?
A: Consult your Caterpillar equipment manual for recommended bearing grease specifications. Typical applications use NLGI Grade 2 multipurpose lithium-based grease. Apply grease through the lube fitting at regular service intervals.
