Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electric lift truck models does shaft 38720 fit?
A: The 38720 shaft is compatible with Jungheinrich, Linde, BT, and Hyster electric lift trucks. Confirm the truck model year and transmission type with your equipment documentation, as shaft fitment varies by model generation.
Q: What material is the 38720 shaft made from?
A: The 38720 shaft is constructed from alloy steel with induction hardening for durability in high-cycle industrial environments. The hardened surface resists wear and fatigue stress from continuous transmission engagement.
Q: What are the dimensions of shaft 38720?
A: Contact our parts team with your equipment model and serial number to confirm exact shaft diameter, length, and keyway specifications. Shaft dimensions vary by electric truck series.
Q: Can the 38720 shaft be repaired or reconditioned?
A: Shaft repair is not recommended. If the shaft shows scoring, spalling, or bending, replacement is the safest option. Damaged shafts cause drivetrain misalignment and accelerate failure of mating components.
Q: What symptoms indicate the 38720 shaft is failing?
A: Watch for unusual vibration from the transmission housing, grinding or clunking sounds under load, and difficulty engaging forward or reverse motion. These symptoms suggest shaft wear, keyway damage, or bearing wear.
