Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which Mobile pallet jack models use the MO 18E328 piston rod?
A: The MO 18E328 piston rod fits Mobile ECO I-55 pallet jacks. Your equipment may list the model as ECO I55 or ECO I 55. Check your pallet jack documentation to confirm the exact model designation.
Q: What is the function of the piston rod in a pallet jack?
A: The piston rod connects the hydraulic cylinder piston to the lifting mechanism. It transmits hydraulic pressure into mechanical force that raises and lowers the load platform. It must withstand repeated cycles and maintain precise alignment.
Q: What material is the MO 18E328 piston rod made from?
A: This piston rod is manufactured from hardened steel designed to resist corrosion and fatigue from continuous hydraulic cycling. The rod surface is precision-finished to maintain effective seals and prevent leakage.
Q: Can this piston rod be used on other pallet jack models?
A: This rod is engineered specifically for Mobile ECO I-55 hydraulic assemblies. Piston rods have critical dimension tolerances; do not attempt to use this part on other brands or models without verification of cross-compatibility.
Q: What symptoms indicate the piston rod needs replacement?
A: Replace the piston rod if you observe visible scarring or scoring on the rod surface, persistent hydraulic leaks at the rod entry point, uneven lifting, or a binding sensation during the lift cycle. Damaged rods compromise seal integrity.
