Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CT 1202032 and what is it used for?
A: The CT 1202032 is a zinc-plated caster assembly with a lubricated axle (lube axle design) for Caterpillar electric lift truck NPP 60 models. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance, while the lube axle design reduces friction and extends bearing life.
Q: What equipment does the CT 1202032 fit?
A: The CT 1202032 is specifically designed for Caterpillar NPP 60 electric lift trucks. Verify your equipment is a CAT NPP 60 model before ordering to ensure proper fitment and functionality.
Q: What is the benefit of the zinc-plated finish?
A: The zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance to the caster assembly. This coating protects the metal components from oxidation and rust, extending the service life of the caster, especially in humid warehouse or outdoor adjacent environments.
Q: What does lube axle mean on the CT 1202032?
A: Lube axle indicates that the caster uses a lubricated bearing design. The bearing is pre-lubricated and sealed to reduce friction during rotation. This design lowers the effort required to maneuver the equipment and extends bearing life compared to unlubricated axles.
Q: What maintenance does the CT 1202032 lube axle caster require?
A: Lube axle casters are factory-sealed, so regular re-lubrication is typically not required during normal warehouse service. Monitor caster rotation for smooth, quiet operation. If the caster becomes hard to turn or makes noise, the bearing seal may be compromised and the caster should be replaced.
