Product Description
Pull Rod, Galvanized (1018mm=40.07") Hyster, HY4078162
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the length of the HY 4078162 pull rod?
A: The HY 4078162 pull rod measures 1018mm in length, equivalent to 40.07 inches. This longer dimension is for specific Hyster models with larger mast assemblies or extended load center requirements.
Q: Is the HY 4078162 galvanized like the HY 4078161?
A: Yes, the HY 4078162 is also galvanized steel. Both the 933mm and 1018mm pull rod variants use the same galvanized coating for corrosion resistance. The only difference is length.
Q: Can I use the HY 4078162 on equipment that calls for HY 4078161?
A: No. The HY 4078162 and HY 4078161 are different lengths designed for different Hyster models. Using the wrong length will cause binding or incorrect mast geometry. Always verify the correct part number for your specific equipment.
Q: What maintenance is required for galvanized pull rods?
A: Inspect periodically for damage, bending, or corrosion breakthrough. Galvanized coating does not require lubrication. If damage occurs, the rod should be replaced rather than repaired, as structural integrity cannot be reliably restored.
