Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the YL 0612779-00 lock bolt used for?
A: The YL 0612779-00 is a Yale OEM lock bolt component used in electric pallet truck assemblies. Lock bolts are designed to prevent fastener loosening due to vibration and operational stress.
Q: Which Yale pallet truck models use the YL 0612779-00 lock bolt?
A: The YL 0612779-00 is compatible with Yale-manufactured electric pallet trucks. Verify your specific equipment model and assembly location before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Q: Why is a lock bolt different from a standard bolt?
A: Lock bolts incorporate a locking mechanism, serrated flange, or nylon insert that creates friction and prevents self-loosening during equipment vibration and continuous operation. This design protects critical assemblies from fastener failure.
Q: Can the YL 0612779-00 be reused after removal?
A: Nylon-insert lock bolts should be replaced rather than reused, as the nylon locking insert degrades with each removal and application. If the YL 0612779-00 uses a nylon insert, order a new bolt for each assembly.
