Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the HY 226760 roll pin used for?
A: The HY 226760 is a roll pin (also called a spring pin or coil pin) designed for Hyster electric lift truck assemblies. Roll pins are cylindrical fasteners used to pin two components together or to secure a component to a shaft. They rely on spring tension to maintain holding force and are commonly used in steering, control linkages, and mechanical assemblies.
Q: What is the diameter and length of the HY 226760 roll pin?
A: Consult the Hyster parts diagram for the HY 226760 to determine the exact diameter and length specifications. Roll pin dimensions are critical for proper fit and function. An incorrect size will either fall out or bind the assembly, so verify the specifications match your equipment before ordering.
Q: Which Hyster lift truck assemblies use the HY 226760 roll pin?
A: The HY 226760 is used in specific Hyster electric lift truck assemblies. Common applications include steering linkages, control arm connections, and mast pivot points. To confirm the exact location and application on your model, reference your equipment documentation or contact a technician familiar with your specific lift truck configuration.
Q: What material and performance standard does the HY 226760 meet?
A: The HY 226760 is manufactured from alloy steel, hardened and finished to withstand the shear loads and mechanical stresses of lift truck operation. Roll pins used in material handling equipment must maintain spring tension over extended service life and resist loosening from vibration.
Q: When should the HY 226760 roll pin be replaced?
A: Replace the HY 226760 if the pin falls out, if the assembly it secures becomes loose or misaligned, if the pin is visibly damaged or bent, or if the assembly exhibits play or movement where none should exist. Once a roll pin loses tension, it cannot be reused and must be replaced with a new OEM part.
Q: Are there equivalent roll pin part numbers from other manufacturers?
A: The HY 226760 is a Hyster OEM part specified for your lift truck. While equivalent roll pins of the same diameter and length may exist from other suppliers, always use the Hyster OEM part number to ensure the exact specifications and spring characteristics match your equipment requirements. Cross-reference by diameter and length with your equipment documentation before substituting.
