Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the application specifications for the CT 216149?
A: The CT 216149 is an OEM oil seal for hydraulic system applications in Caterpillar electric lift trucks. It seals rotating shafts in pump and motor assemblies to prevent hydraulic fluid leakage in high-pressure environments.
Q: What hydraulic fluids is the CT 216149 compatible with?
A: The CT 216149 is validated for Caterpillar hydraulic oils and equivalent fluids meeting ISO VG 46 specifications. The hydrocarbon-resistant elastomer formulation resists standard petroleum-based hydraulic oils used in industrial lift equipment.
Q: What is the material composition of the CT 216149 seal?
A: The CT 216149 features a hydrocarbon-resistant elastomer body combined with precision metal components. The sealed construction includes metal reinforcement rings for shaft stability and pressure containment in dynamic hydraulic applications.
Q: What maintenance is required for the CT 216149?
A: The CT 216149 is a sealed, maintenance-free component. Monitor for oil weeping at the seal area during regular equipment inspections. Degraded seal performance may require replacement; seal life typically ranges from 2000 to 4000 operating hours depending on fluid condition and pressure cycling.
