MU 50454260

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is SKU MU 50454260?
A: MU 50454260 is a pump piston assembly component for manual pallet jacks. The piston is the reciprocating element inside the hydraulic pump cylinder that creates pressure to lift and lower the load. A damaged or worn piston compromises pump performance and lifting capacity.

Q: Which Multiton pallet jacks use MU 50454260?
A: MU 50454260 is compatible with Multiton model 6600 manual pallet jacks. Verify your equipment model designation matches before ordering. Incorrect piston specifications will result in incompatibility with your pump assembly.

Q: What are the specifications for MU 50454260?
A: Pump piston specifications including diameter, length, material composition, and seal configuration are critical for proper fit and function. Contact our technical team with your Multiton model 6600 serial number for exact dimensional and material data for MU 50454260.

Q: What symptoms indicate MU 50454260 needs replacement?
A: Common failure symptoms include loss of lifting pressure, sluggish pump operation, oil leakage from the pump cylinder, inability to maintain load height, or grinding noises during pump actuation. These indicate piston wear, scoring, or seal failure requiring immediate replacement.

Q: What material is MU 50454260 made from?
A: Pump pistons for manual pallet jacks are typically machined from hardened steel or ductile iron to withstand hydraulic pressure cycles and friction. MU 50454260 is manufactured to Multiton OEM specifications. Consult the technical datasheet for exact material grade and hardness requirements.

Q: How long does MU 50454260 typically last before failure?
A: Service life for pump pistons depends on equipment usage frequency, load cycles, hydraulic fluid condition, and maintenance practices. Manual pallet jack pistons typically last between 5000 and 15000 lift cycles before seal wear or piston scoring requires replacement. Regular hydraulic fluid changes extend piston lifespan.
