Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CL 1808131 and where is it used?
A: The CL 1808131 is a machined steel sleeve component that mounts within the hydraulic pump assembly of Clark CJ55 manual pallet jacks. It functions as a precision guide and bearing surface for the pump ram, ensuring smooth hydraulic operation and proper force transmission during pallet handling.
Q: What material is the CL 1808131 made from?
A: The CL 1808131 is manufactured from machined steel with a turned or ground plain finish. This steel composition is selected for wear resistance and dimensional stability in high-cycle hydraulic service, providing a precision bearing surface for the pump ram.
Q: Is the CL 1808131 compatible with Clark models other than the CJ55?
A: The CL 1808131 is designed exclusively for Clark CJ55 manual pallet jack hydraulic assemblies. It is not interchangeable with other Clark models or competing manufacturer equipment. Verify your equipment model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
Q: What are the signs that the CL 1808131 sleeve may need replacement?
A: Wear or scoring of the CL 1808131 sleeve results in sluggish or jerky lift action due to increased friction on the pump ram. If you notice degraded lift performance, harsh operation, or visible wear inside the hydraulic cylinder, the sleeve may require replacement.
Q: Can the CL 1808131 sleeve be refurbished or must it be replaced?
A: The CL 1808131 is a precision-machined bearing component. Minor surface contamination can be cleaned, but scoring, pitting, or dimensional wear cannot be reliably restored. If wear is visible or performance is degraded, replacement is the recommended solution for reliable operation.
